MEA (Medial amygdalar nucleus) projects to ACB (Nucleus accumbens)

Species: Mouse
Result: absent
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: The medial amygdala was unlabeled after accumbens injections. The single exception was an injection that also involved the ventral septum.

“The medial amygdala was unlabeled after Acb injections except for one injection involving the ventral septum.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
