Evidence
After AAV9-CaMKIIa-hM4Di-mCherry injection into the BLA, mCherry-labelled axonal boutons were detected and counted in layers 2 and 5 of the prelimbic cortex, with layer 2 receiving more boutons than layer 5; maternal separation increased bouton counts.

Named in the paper
“BLA (CaMKIIa-expressing glutamatergic cells)” and “prelimbic (PL)”
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

“Virally labelled BLA boutons were counted in prelimbic layers 2 and 5, with layer 2 exceeding layer 5, and saline-treated MS rats showed a main effect of rearing.”
