LS (Lateral septal nucleus) synapses onto ACB (Nucleus accumbens)

Species: Rat
Result: present
Method: transsynaptic tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: moderate
Evidence: Input cells were scattered in the septum, mostly in the intermediate lateral septal nucleus, a moderately strong input source.

Named in the paper: “intermediate lateral septal nucleus (LSI)” and “NAcSh-VP projection neurons”
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
“Most septal input cells were in LSI, and the lateral septum is described as a moderately strong source.”
