BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus) synapses onto CP (Caudoputamen)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: transsynaptic tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: An anterogradely transsynaptic AAV2/1-Flpo injected into the BLA, combined with a Flp-dependent reporter in the dorsomedial striatum, labelled numerous striatal (D1) neurons, indicating transsynaptic transfer across BLA-to-DMS synapses; restricting inhibitory DREADD expression to these BLA-innervated D1 neurons blocked the behavioural effects of BLA terminal stimulation.
