All claims for this connection
Species

Result
present
Method
retrograde tracer
Sign
unknown
Evidence
Retrograde AAV-Cre injected into the right BLA, with Cre-dependent GCaMP8f in the right ACC, labelled BLA-projecting ACC neurons; 280 of these cells were imaged.

Named in the paper
“anterior cingulate cortex (ACC)” and “basolateral amygdala (BLA)”
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

“The same retrograde strategy with Cre injected into the BLA gave 280 imaged BLA-projecting ACC neurons in mice.”
