BLA glutamatergic principal neurons projects to ACA (Anterior cingulate area)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
retrograde tracer
Sign
unknown
Evidence
A retrograde AAV-Cre-mCherry injected into the ACC of GAD67-GFP mice labelled BLA cell bodies. These cells did not overlap with GAD67-GFP neurons and co-expressed Vglut2 mRNA, so the BLA-to-ACC projection neurons are glutamatergic.
