PL (Prelimbic area) projects to BLA (basal amygdaloid nucleus)

Species: Rat
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Fluorescent microspheres and, in a separate experiment, Fluorogold injected into the BLA retrogradely labelled neurons in the mPFC, which were then sampled for single-cell RT-PCR or stained for c-Fos, confirming mPFC neurons that project to the BLA.
