BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus) projects to ENT (Entorhinal area)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: strong
Evidence: After AAV-CaMKIIa-ChR2-eYFP injection into the BLA, eYFP-labelled cell bodies filled the BLA and eYFP-positive axonal fibers were seen in the entorhinal cortex, indicating an anterogradely traced BLA axonal projection to EC.

“Viral eYFP expression in BLA somata with labelled fibers in EC constitutes anterograde labelling of a BLA-to-EC projection, described as strong.”
