BLA (basal amygdaloid nucleus) functionally connects to GU (Gustatory areas)

Species: Rat
Result: present
Method: electrical stimulation
Sign: unknown
Evidence: BLA stimulation evoked PSPs in GC neurons with onset delays consistent with monosynaptic input. The responses had early excitatory and later inhibitory components, and some GC neurons responded to both BLA and VPMpc. Single BLA shocks or 20-Hz BLA bursts given before VPMpc stimulation enhanced or suppressed VPMpc-evoked PSPs, depending on timing.
Measurements: conduction delay: 10.2 ms, n = 5
