LA (Lateral amygdalar nucleus) functionally connects to BLA glutamatergic principal neurons

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: electrical stimulation
Sign: excitatory
Evidence: Electrical stimulation of the lateral amygdala evoked monosynaptic EPSPs in BA principal neurons. These EPSPs were potentiated long-term only when LA theta burst stimulation was paired 10 ms after optical theta burst stimulation of vCA1 axons.
