BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus) functionally connects to CA1 (Field CA1)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign
inhibitory
Evidence
Activating ChR2 confined to GABAergic BA neurons evoked inhibitory (inward, high-chloride internal) currents in roughly half of the identified vH interneurons recorded, showing that the long-range inhibitory projection also targets local interneurons.
Measurements
  • connection probability: 0.5
Named in the paper
“BA (vGAT+ neurons)” and “local vGAT+ interneurons in vH”
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-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-10

“With FLEX ChR2 in vGAT+ BA neurons, inhibitory responses appeared in about half of the recorded vH interneurons (Fig 5C,D).”

Status

proposed

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