BLAa (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus, anterior part) projects to BST (Bed nuclei of the stria terminalis)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: CTB injected into the dorsal BNST (covering adBNST and ovBNST), and in a separate experiment into the ovBNST, retrogradely labelled cell bodies in the anterior basal amygdala.

Named in the paper: “anterior subdivision of the BA (aBA)” and “dorsal BNST (dBNST) / ovBNST”
Made by: an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-10
Checked by: a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-10
“CTB+ cells appear in the aBA after the dBNST injections (Fig. 1E,F) and after the ovBNST injection (Fig. 5B–D).”
