BLN (basolateral amygdaloid nuclear complex) functionally connects to ACB (Nucleus accumbens)

Species: Rat
Result: absent
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: unknown
Evidence: FOS density in the core and shell of the nucleus accumbens was quantified after optogenetic stimulation of BLA projection neurons but did not differ significantly from mCherry controls.
