Method
anterograde tracer
Sign
unknown
Evidence
mCherry-labeled cNTS terminals were found in the midline PV thalamic nucleus. Terminal density did not differ between cVNS and aVNS mice.

Named in the paper
“cNTS” and “periventricular thalamic nucleus (PV)”
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

“PV labeling is reported, and the density comparison in Fig. 9E was not significant; the paper's PV is the midline paraventricular thalamus.”

Status
