The claims behind it

clm-2c31zya3jgpresentretrograde tracerproposed

Alexa Fluor 594-conjugated CTB injected into the mediodorsal thalamus retrogradely labelled aIC neurons, mainly in deep layers (about layer 6). None of these cells were also labelled by the amygdala tracer. They outnumbered the amygdala-projecting aIC cells.

clm-4arr0jht6bpresentanterograde tracerproposed

After AAV-CaMKII-ChR2-eYFP was injected into the aIC, eYFP-labelled axon terminals in the thalamus were found mainly in the mediodorsal and central medial nuclei.
