LH (Lateral habenula) synapses onto PVH (Paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: transsynaptic tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Rabies tracing from PVN oxytocin starter cells labelled lateral habenula neurons, with markedly more LHb input to CeA-projecting than to NAc-projecting oxytocin neurons.
Source: Distinct projections of PVN oxytocin neurons regulate the divergent defensive behaviors in response to social threat

Named in the paper: “LHb” and “PVN”
Made by: an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
Checked by: a second AI model (claude-opus-5) agrees, 2026-10-09
“Rabies tracing labeled LHb neurons, much more for CeA-projecting PVN OXT cells.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
