BLAp (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus, posterior part) functionally connects to PL (Prelimbic area)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: unknown
Evidence: cBLA stimulation produced only few responsive units in PL in vivo: 2.6 percent of layer 2 units and 12.9 percent of layer 5 units changed firing, far below the effect in IL layer 5.
Measurements: connection probability: 0.026
connection probability: 0.129
Source: Rostral and caudal basolateral amygdala engage distinct circuits in the prelimbic and infralimbic prefrontal cortex

Named in the paper: “cBLA” and “PL (L2 and L5)”
Made by: an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-10
Checked by: a second AI model (claude-opus-5) agrees, 2026-10-10
“The in vivo percentages for cBLA-responsive PL units (2.6% L2, 12.9% L5) are as reported.”
