BLAp (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus, posterior part) projects to BST (Bed nuclei of the stria terminalis)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Retrograde CTB injections into the dorsal BNST and into the ovBNST labelled neurons in the posterior basal amygdala, with a CTB pattern differing from that in the anterior BA.

Named in the paper: “posterior BA (pBA)” and “dorsal BNST (dBNST) / ovBNST”
Made by: an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-10
Checked by: a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-10
“The pBA contained CTB+ dBNST-projecting cells whose labelling pattern differed from the aBA, and pBA somata were also labelled from the ovBNST.”
