DP (Dorsal peduncular area) projects to BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: strong
Evidence: Retrograde AAV-Cre in the BLA labelled dorsal peduncular neurons, which were densely spread across all layers with a laminar pattern like the infralimbic cortex.
