NTS (Nucleus of the solitary tract) projects to CEA (Central amygdalar nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: After retrograde EGFP-expressing AAV was injected into the CeA, retrogradely labelled neurons were also seen in the nucleus of the solitary tract of the medulla.
