MD (Mediodorsal nucleus of thalamus) functionally connects to PL (Prelimbic area)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
electrical stimulation
Sign
unknown
Evidence
In chronically implanted behaving mice, electrical stimulation of the MD thalamus evoked field postsynaptic potentials in the medial prefrontal cortex. These potentials showed an input-output relation, paired-pulse facilitation peaking at 100 ms, and a delayed LTP after high-frequency stimulation.
Measurements
  • conduction delay: 13.1 ms (SEM 1.2)
Source

Different forms of decision-making involve changes in the synaptic strength of the thalamic, hippocampal, and amygdalar afferents to the medial prefrontal cortex

“mediodorsal (MD) thalamic nucleus” and “prelimbic/infralimbic area of the mPFC”
Made by
an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-10
Checked by

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

“The 13.1 ± 1.2 ms value is the latency to peak amplitude of the first fPSP component, not a conduction delay; onset latencies are reported separately in Table 1.”

proposed

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