BLAp (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus, posterior part) functionally connects to PL (Prelimbic area)

Species: Mouse
Result: absent
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Monosynaptic currents from cBLA axons onto PL layer 5 pyramidal tract neurons were essentially nil (under one percent of the IL L5 PT response), and even stimulation strong enough to make IL L5 PT neurons fire evoked no excitatory current in PL L5 PT neurons (9 pairs, 3 animals), only a trace of inhibition.
Source: Rostral and caudal basolateral amygdala engage distinct circuits in the prelimbic and infralimbic prefrontal cortex

“cBLA-evoked responses in PL L5 PT were negligible monosynaptically and absent even at suprathreshold stimulation.”
