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

All claims for this connection
Species
Rat
Result
present
Method
anterograde tracer
Sign
unknown
Evidence
BDA injected into the medial prefrontal cortex labelled axon terminals in the basolateral amygdala, where BDA-positive puncta co-localised with the glutamatergic terminal marker VGLUT2, indicating a glutamatergic mPFC projection to the BLA.
