BDA injected into the medial zona incerta, covering A13 TH-positive neurons, produced BDA/TH double-labelled axons and boutons in the dlPAG. This confirms the retrograde result.

After CTb injections into the dlPAG, the A13 group in the medial zona incerta held the most CTb/TH double-labelled neurons of any dopaminergic group in every case. They were mostly ipsilateral and concentrated in the intermediate A13.
