AI (Agranular insular area) projects to CEAm (Central amygdalar nucleus, medial part)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: aIC axons were found in the medial central amygdala, though CeM had the lowest density of aIC axons and of aIC-BLA collaterals among the amygdala nuclei examined.

Named in the paper: “aIC” and “CeM”
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
“aIC axons are reported in CeM, which the paper says receives the lowest density of aIC axons and of aIC-BLA collaterals.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
