- Evidence
- Anterograde eYFP labelling from aIC glutamatergic neurons showed a substantial amount of axons in the lateral central amygdala. Collaterals of aIC-BLA neurons in ipsilateral CeL had density similar to the BLA, and synaptophysin-mCherry puncta were dense there.

- Named in the paper
- “aIC” and “CeL”
- 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 paper reports substantial aIC axons in CeL, aIC-BLA collateral density in CeL similar to the BLA, and dense SynP-mCh contacts there.”

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