BMA glutamatergic principal neurons functionally connects to VMH (Ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: absent
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Optogenetic stimulation of glutamatergic BM axons produced no response in any of the tested Vglut2-negative VMH shell neurons.
