PAG (Periaqueductal gray) synapses onto SPVC (Spinal nucleus of the trigeminal, caudal part)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
transsynaptic tracer
Sign
unknown
Evidence
Periaqueductal gray neurons became GFP-positive following retrograde transneuronal spread of the Cre-dependent pseudorabies vector from PB-projecting trigeminal neurons.
Named in the paper
“periaqueductal gray (PAG)” and “projection neurons of the trigeminal nucleus caudalis (TNC)”
Made by
an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
Checked by

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

“PAG labelling from PB-projecting TNC neurons is shown in Fig 3F.”

Status

proposed

Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
