PB (Parabrachial nucleus) projects to CEA (Central amygdalar nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: After injecting an AAV expressing ChR2-EYFP into the PBN, fluorescent PBN axon terminals were seen in the laterocapsular part of the central amygdala.

Named in the paper: “parabrachial nucleus (PBN)” and “laterocapsular subdivision of the CeA (CeLC)”
Made by: an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
Checked by: a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-09
“After the ChR2-EYFP virus was injected into the PBN, the paper's own Fig. 1B shows fluorescent terminals in the laterocapsular CeA.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
