MEA glutamatergic neurons projects to VMH (Ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Glutamatergic MeApd fibers were observed in the VMH, including the ventrolateral part, which received less of them than the rest of the nucleus.
