CBN (Cerebellar nuclei) synapses onto VTA (Ventral tegmental area)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: transsynaptic tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Representative images and quantification show rabies-labelled deep cerebellar nuclei neurons after tracing from GABAergic VTA cells in GAD2-Cre mice.
