AUDv (Ventral auditory area) functionally connects to LA glutamatergic principal neurons
All claims for this connection- Species
- Mouse
- Result
- present
- Method
- optogenetic circuit mapping
- Sign
- excitatory
- Evidence
- Photostimulation of ChR2-expressing auditory cortical axons in the LA evoked glutamatergic EPSCs in LA pyramidal cells, with 79% of recorded neurons responding when only AuV was infected (84% when AuV and MGm were both infected, N = 50 cells). EPSCs were blocked by kynurenic acid, and in vivo photostimulation of AuV evoked LA field potentials at a 12-ms latency, which were strongly reduced by intra-LA kynurenic acid.
- Measurements
- connection probability: 0.79
- conduction delay: 12 ms

- Checked by
a second AI model (claude-opus-5) agrees, 2026-10-09
“79% of LA pyramidal cells responded with kynurenic-acid-sensitive EPSCs to AuV-only ChR2 photostimulation, and in vivo AuV stimulation gave ~12 ms latency LA field potentials.”
