PL (Prelimbic area) synapses onto BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: transsynaptic tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Anterograde trans-synaptic rAAV2/1-Cre injected in the PFC combined with a Cre-dependent reporter in the BLA labelled BLA neurons, and together with retrograde labelling from the BNST revealed doubly labelled BLA relay cells that receive prefrontal input and project to the BNST.
