- AAV-CaMKIIa-ChR2-eYFP or ArchT-GFP expressed in BLA labelled axon terminals in the medial prefrontal cortex. These terminals were targeted by optical fibers placed in dorsal PL.

- “BLA” and “PL / mPFC”
- 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) is unsure, 2026-10-09
“The paper expressed opsins in BLA to manipulate terminals in mPFC, but the available text never shows labelled terminals, and that histology is only in a supplementary figure that is not described.”
- Status
proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
