Rat central amygdala corticotropin-releasing hormone-expressing neurons projects to PB (Parabrachial nucleus)

Species: Rat
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: strong
Evidence: Cre-dependent AAV expressing mCherry (or ChR2-eYFP) in CeL CRF neurons produced the heaviest fiber labelling in the lateral and medial parabrachial nuclei, with fibers extending caudally within the medial PBN.

“Largest and densest labelling was in lateral and medial PBN.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
