3) functionally connects to ILA5 (Infralimbic area, layer 5)

Species: Mouse
Result: ambiguous
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: unknown
Evidence: No input from layer 2 or 3 random cells was detected onto layer 5 random cells, nor from layer 2/3 mPFC-BLA cells onto layer 5 non-mPFC-BLA cells. The authors note this may reflect the small number of such maps.

Named in the paper: “L2 and L3 random mPFC cells” and “L5 random mPFC cells”
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
“No L2/3-to-L5 input was found among random cells, but the authors attribute this possibly to the small map sample, so ambiguous fits.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
