Evidence
Monosynaptically labelled neurons were found in layer 5 (likely 5B) of primary motor cortex, scattered along the rostrocaudal axis and present bilaterally with an ipsilateral bias; cortical labelling occurred in 3 of 5 SST-Cre and 1 of 4 GlyT2-Cre mice.
Named in the paper
“motor cortex M1, layer 5/5B” and “preBötC”
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

“M1 layer 5/5B labelling and the 3/5 vs 1/4 cortical counts match the text.”

Status

proposed

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