NTS (Nucleus of the solitary tract) synapses onto LC (Locus ceruleus)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
transsynaptic tracer
Sign
unknown
Evidence
Monosynaptic rabies tracing from noradrenergic LC starter cells in DBH-Cre mice (TVA/RG helpers plus EnvA-dG-mCherry) labelled mCherry-positive presynaptic neurons in the NTS, indicating direct NTS input onto LC noradrenergic neurons.
