PALv (Pallidum, ventral region) synapses onto ACB (Nucleus accumbens)

Species: Rat
Result: present
Method: transsynaptic tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: moderate
Evidence: Ventral pallidum neurons were rabies-labelled as inputs, contributing roughly a tenth of the input cells to the shell-VP projection neurons.

Named in the paper: “ventral pallidum (VP)” 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
“VP gives about 10% of input cells and is called a moderately strong source, with cells shown in Figs. 4b and 5b.”
