PA (Posterior amygdalar nucleus) projects to VMH (Ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus)
All claims for this connection- Species
- Mouse
- Result
- present
- Method
- anterograde tracer
- Sign
- unknown
- Evidence
- After viral expression of Chronos-eYFP restricted to AHiPM, labelled axonal processes originating from AHiPM were visualized in the ventrolateral VMH, and eYFP-positive terminals were seen in VMHvl near the implanted optic fiber/probe tract.

- Named in the paper
- “posteromedial part of the amygdalohippocampal area (AHiPM), also termed posterior amygdala (PA)” and “VMHvl”
- 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) agrees, 2026-10-09
“Viral Chronos-eYFP expression in AHiPM produced labeled processes/terminals in VMHvl shown in the cited confocal images, supporting an anterograde projection.”

proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
