BMAp (Basomedial amygdalar nucleus, posterior part) projects to ACB (Nucleus accumbens)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: moderate
Evidence: Small injections in the posterior accessory basal nucleus produced a moderately dense terminal field in the whole accumbens core and the ventral medial shell. Lateral shell labeling was less dense, and labeling was also present contralaterally.

Named in the paper: “ABp” and “Acb”
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
“ABp injections gave a moderately dense field in the whole core and ventral medial shell, less in the lateral shell, plus contralateral labeling.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
