Anatomical characterization of the mPFC neurons projecting to the BLA and NAc. A Schematic structure of different regions and layers of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). B Schematic showing injection of AAV2/retro-hSyn-eGFP into NAc and AAV2/retro-hSyn-mCherry into BLA (left) and representative images showing the injection site in BLA and NAc (right). Scale bar: 500 μm. C Representative images showing the labeled dmPFC→BLA and dmPFC→NAc PNs. Scale bar: 100 μm. D Pie charts illustrating the abundance of the BLA-and NAc-projecting neurons in dmPFC. E Bar graph illustrating the percentage of the BLA- and NAc-projecting neurons in dmPFC. F Representative images showing the labeled vmPFC→BLA and vmPFC→NAc PNs. Scale bar: 100 μm. G Pie charts illustrating the abundance of the BLA- and NAc-projecting neurons in vmPFC. H Bar graph illustrating the percentage of the BLA- and NAc-projecting neurons in vmPFC
