PA (Posterior amygdalar nucleus) projects to ACB (Nucleus accumbens)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: moderate
Evidence: An injection restricted to the lateral amygdalohippocampal area gave moderately dense labeling in the ventral accumbens core and parts of the medial shell. The midcaudal lateral shell was sparsely labeled.
