AIp (Agranular insular area, posterior part) functionally connects to CTXpl (Cortical plate)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
electrical stimulation
Sign
excitatory
Evidence
In horizontal mouse slices, electrical stimulation of superficial AiP layers evoked subthreshold postsynaptic potentials and currents in deep layer perirhinal/lateral entorhinal principal neurons, with a small glutamatergic excitatory conductance followed by larger feedforward inhibition; voltage-sensitive dye imaging also showed a PER-LEC network response. Responses did not drive principal neuron spiking.
Measurements
  • conduction delay: 5.95 ms (SEM 0.52), n = 18
Named in the paper
“agranular insular cortex (AiP)” and “PER-LEC deep layer principal 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

“AiP stimulation evoked subthreshold PSPs and an excitatory conductance at 5.95 ± 0.52 ms (n = 18) that preceded a larger, CNQX/APV-sensitive inhibition, and the dye imaging showed a network response.”

proposed

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