BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus) projects to Isocortex

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Viral expression of ChR2-YFP or GCaMP6f in the BLA labelled axons that reached the ipsilateral FrA. These axons were concentrated in superficial layer 1, within about 150 µm of the pia.
Source: The integration of Gaussian noise by long-range amygdala inputs in frontal circuit promotes fear learning in mice
