BLN (basolateral amygdaloid nuclear complex) functionally connects to PL (Prelimbic area)

All claims for this connection
Species
Rat
Result
present
Method
optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign
unknown
Evidence
Photostimulation of ChR2-expressing BLA CaMKII neurons (20 Hz, 15 min) raised FOS density in the prelimbic cortex relative to mCherry controls.
