BLAp (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus, posterior part) projects to ILA (Infralimbic area)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Retrograde AAV placed in IL labelled amygdala neurons that were shifted toward the caudal end of the basolateral amygdala (694 ± 78 cells per animal, 3 animals), largely non-overlapping with the PL-projecting population (246 ± 30 dual-labelled cells).
Source: Rostral and caudal basolateral amygdala engage distinct circuits in the prelimbic and infralimbic prefrontal cortex
