- Evidence
- Anterograde tracing from AVPR1A CeA neurons showed boutons in the BNST, and collaterals of DLS-projecting AVPR1A CeA neurons labelled by rabies also reached the BNST.

- Named in the paper
- “AVPR1ACeA neurons” and “bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST)”
- 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) agrees, 2026-10-09
“BNST appears both as a prominent anterograde target and as a rabies-labelled collateral.”
- Status
proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
