- Evidence
- Cre-dependent AAV expressing ChR2-YFP injected into the dorsal raphe of SERT-Cre mice labelled axons throughout the basolateral amygdala, with the basal nucleus receiving a particularly dense plexus of YFP-positive, 5-HT-immunoreactive fibres; some of these varicosities also contained VGLUT3.

- “DRN” and “BA (basal nucleus of the amygdala)”
- Made by
- an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-10
- Checked by
a second AI model (claude-opus-5) agrees, 2026-10-10
“AAV-ChR2/YFP from DRN labels dense 5-HT+ fibers in BA, with VGLUT3+ varicosities, as described in Fig. 1E–G.”

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