BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus) projects to CA1 (Field CA1)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: After bilateral injection of retrograde AAV2rg-Cre into CA1 of RiboTag mice, HA-labelled neurons were seen in the basolateral amygdala, indicating that BLA neurons project directly to the hippocampus. These labelled cells did not overlap with PV staining.
Source: Repeated social defeat in male mice induced unique RNA profiles in projection neurons from the amygdala to the hippocampus

Named in the paper: “basolateral amygdala” and “CA1 of the hippocampus”
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
“Fig. 4D shows HA-labelled BLA neurons after CA1 retrograde injection and Fig. 4E shows they do not overlap with PV; sign is correctly left unknown since excitation is only inferred.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
