In anesthetized rats, 40-Hz blue-light pulses applied to ChR2-expressing BLA axons within the ventral hippocampus increased the firing of recorded ventral hippocampal CA1 neurons; when BLA cell bodies were stimulated with 473 nm light, simultaneous continuous 561 nm illumination of the BLA axons in VH (eArchT3.0) reduced this driven VH activity.
