ILA (Infralimbic area) synapses onto CEA (central amygdaloid nucleus)

Rat
Result
present
Method
transsynaptic tracer
Sign
excitatory
Evidence
An anterograde transsynaptic AAV1/2 expressing Cre-EGFP under the CaMKIIa promoter was placed in the right infralimbic cortex; four weeks later EGFP appeared in a subset of CeLC neurons, indicating they receive direct synaptic input from IL glutamatergic pyramidal cells.
