anterograde tracer

Named in the paper
“CeAGA neurons” and “basolateral amygdala (BLA)”
Made by
an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
Checked by

a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-09

“The text and Extended Data 8b show CeAGA axons, not somata, in the ipsilateral BLA, and the contralateral BLA is sparsely innervated.”
