COA (cortical amygdaloid nucleus) projects to PALv (Pallidum, ventral region)

Species: Rat
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: weak
Evidence: Anterograde dextran-amine tracing from the posterolateral cortical amygdaloid nucleus labelled only a few fibres in the ventral pallidum.

Named in the paper: “posterolateral cortical amygdaloid nucleus” and “ventral pallidum”
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
“Only some or a few fibres reached the ventral pallidum, so a weak strength fits Fig. 2F and 3B.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
