LH (Lateral habenula) projects to DR (Dorsal nucleus raphe)

All claims for this connection
Species
Rat
Result
present
Method
retrograde tracer
Sign
unknown
Evidence
After Fluoro-Gold was injected into the DRN, retrogradely labeled cell bodies were consistently found in the medial lateral habenula. These DRN-projecting habenula cells were then examined for stress-induced Fos.
Named in the paper
“medial division of LHb (LHbM)” and “dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN)”
Made by
an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-10
Checked by

a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-10

“Fluoro-Gold injected into the DRN retrogradely labeled LHbM cell bodies in rats, as the Experiment 4 figure caption and results show, so the LHbM-to-DRN projection is supported.”

Status

proposed

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