AOBmi (Accessory olfactory bulb, mitral layer) projects to MEA (Medial amygdalar nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Retrograde rAAV2-retro injected into the medial amygdaloid nucleus retrogradely labelled many neurons in the mitral cell layer of the accessory olfactory bulb (about 111 cells per slice, among the highest of the four targets, n = 16 mice). Portions of MeA-labelled MiA neurons were also labelled from PMCo (~35%), BST (~14%) and ACo (~16%).
Source: Co-localization of two-color rAAV2-retro confirms the dispersion characteristics of efferent projections of mitral cells in mouse accessory olfactory bulb
