NTS (Nucleus of the solitary tract) projects to CEAm (Central amygdalar nucleus, medial part)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
anterograde tracer
Sign
unknown
Strength
strong
Evidence
Within the central amygdala, terminals from VNS-TRAPped cNTS neurons were dense in the medial subdivision. CeA terminal density was similar between cVNS and aVNS.

Named in the paper
“cNTS” and “central amygdala medial part (CeM)”
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

“CeM labeling was dense, and CeA density did not differ between groups (Fig. 9F).”
