LH (Lateral habenula) projects to BST (Bed nuclei of the stria terminalis)

Species: Mouse
Result: ambiguous
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: The bed nucleus of the stria terminalis was screened for LHb input to oxytocin neurons, but the reported positive targets were PVN and SON only.
Source: Distinct projections of PVN oxytocin neurons regulate the divergent defensive behaviors in response to social threat
