BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus) projects to ACB (Nucleus accumbens)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
anterograde tracer
Sign
unknown
Evidence
In mice with virus injected in the BLA, EGFP-labelled axons without labelled somata filled the nucleus accumbens, indicating that the accumbens is a BLA output target.
Named in the paper
“basolateral amygdala (BLA)” and “nucleus accumbens (NAc)”
Made by
an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
Checked by

a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) disagrees, 2026-10-09

“The NAc axons came from the retrograde AAVrg virus injected into the BLA, not from an anterograde tracer, so the evidence type is wrong.”

Status

proposed

Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
