BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus) projects to CP (Caudoputamen)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Retrograde tracer (Retrobeads/CTB) placed in the dorsomedial striatum labelled neurons in the basolateral amygdala, confirming an amygdalostriatal projection; many of these retrogradely labelled cells, especially in the anterior BLA, also expressed c-Fos after predator stress.
Source: Persistent enhancement of basolateral amygdala-dorsomedial striatum synapses causes compulsive-like behaviors in mice
