- Evidence
- Cre-dependent AAV5-EF1a-DIO-NpHR-eYFP injected into the CeA of Crh-Cre rats produced eYFP-labelled CRF axon terminals in the ventral BNST, where optical fibers were placed; histology confirmed viral expression at the CeA injection site and in the BNST target.

- Named in the paper
- “CeA CRF neurons” and “BNST (ventral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis)”
- 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) is unsure, 2026-10-09
“The projection is implied by terminal photoinhibition, but the cited figure caption only mentions images of the injection and illumination sites, not explicit anterograde eYFP terminal labeling in BNST.”
- Status
proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
