PB (Parabrachial nucleus) functionally connects to BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: absent
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Photostimulation of parabrachial ChR2-positive axons evoked neither monosynaptic EPSCs nor IPSCs in basolateral amygdala neurons recorded as a negative control (7 BLA cells).
Source: Spared nerve injury differentially alters parabrachial monosynaptic excitatory inputs to molecularly specific neurons in distinct subregions of the central amygdala

Named in the paper: “PBn” and “BLA”
Made by: an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
Checked by: a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-09
“No EPSCs or IPSCs were evoked in BLA neurons, and the figure caption gives 7 BLA cells, though the main text says 9.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
