MG (Medial geniculate complex) projects to BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus)
All claims for this connection- Species
- Mouse
- Result
- present
- Method
- anterograde tracer
- Sign
- unknown
- Evidence
- GCaMP7s was expressed in the medial geniculate/LT and an optic fiber was placed over the BLA. Axon terminals of these thalamic neurons in the BLA showed calcium signals evoked by looming stimuli, tones and footshocks.

- “MGN” and “BLA”

- 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) disagrees, 2026-10-10
“Fig. 3A-C shows GCaMP7s fiber photometry of thalamic axon terminals, a calcium-imaging method rather than anterograde tracing, and the panels show only the injection and fiber placement.”
