BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus) projects to ACB (Nucleus accumbens)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Cre-dependent anterograde AAV expressing membrane GFP and synaptophysin-mRuby injected into the BLA of NPY-Cre mice labelled fibres in the medial nucleus accumbens, covering both shell and core.
Source: Neuropeptide Y neurons in the basolateral amygdala project to the nucleus accumbens and stimulate high-fat intake
