LC (Locus ceruleus) projects to BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
anterograde tracer
Sign
unknown
Evidence
Cre-dependent helper AAV (FLEX-TVA-GFP) injected into the LC of DBH-Cre mice produced GFP-labelled axonal fibres in the BLA, showing that noradrenergic LC neurons send axons there.
