MB (Midbrain) synapses onto BLA glutamatergic principal neurons

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: transsynaptic tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: A small fraction of input neurons to BLA VGLUT2+ cells were in the midbrain.
Measurements: fraction of labelled neurons: 0.0335 (SEM 0.0095), n = 4

Named in the paper: “midbrain” and “BLA VGLUT2+ glutamatergic 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
“The midbrain share for VGLUT2+ neurons is 3.35 ± 0.95%.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
