PALv (Pallidum, ventral region) projects to PSTN (Parasubthalamic nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: weak
Evidence: Anterogradely labelled VP cholinergic axons were found in the parasubthalamic nucleus, to a lesser extent than BLA and PFC, at about 11% of estimated projection density.
