BLA (basal amygdaloid nucleus) projects to ACB (Nucleus accumbens)

Species: Rat
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: strong
Evidence: After AAV-ArchT-GFP was injected into the BLA, immunostaining for GFP revealed labelled axonal fibres in the core of the nucleus accumbens, confirming an anterogradely traced BLA axonal projection to this target.

“GFP-labelled terminal fibers in NAcore after BLA AAV injection are reported as strong (Fig. 2B).”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
