MG (Medial geniculate complex) functionally connects to LA (Lateral amygdalar nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: excitatory
Evidence: In slices, light stimulation of ChR2-expressing MG fibres in the LA evoked short-latency EPSCs and action potentials in LA neurons. It also evoked longer-latency, disynaptic IPSCs, consistent with monosynaptic excitation plus feedforward inhibition.
