The claims behind it

clm-z0rvgsn6xqpresentretrograde tracerproposed

A large number of EGFP-expressing somata were observed in the medial geniculate nucleus after retrograde tracer injection into the BLA.

clm-z8w6ptms3jambiguousretrograde tracerproposed

The medial geniculate nucleus showed minimal to no retrograde labelling after BLA injection of AAV2-retro, which the authors ascribe to poor infection of subcortical inputs by this serotype.
