BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus) functionally connects to PL (Prelimbic area)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: unknown
Strength: weak
Evidence: Optogenetic activation of ChR2-expressing BLA axons in PL evoked only weak responses in ChCs relative to neighbouring pyramidal cells (charge ratio about 0.35).
Source: Selective inhibitory control of pyramidal neuron ensembles and cortical subnetworks by chandelier cells

Named in the paper: “BLA” and “PL L2 chandelier cells”
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
“Optogenetic stimulation of BLA axons gave a weak ChC/PC charge ratio of 0.35±0.10 (n=6).”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
