VMH (Ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus) projects to BLA (basal amygdaloid nucleus)

Species: Rat
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: BLpc FG injection labeled neurons in the VMH, though counts were significantly lower than after BMpc injections.

Named in the paper: “ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMH)” and “BLpc”
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) agrees, 2026-10-10
“VMH is labeled after BLpc injection, and the lower counts versus BMpc are supported by context and the abstract.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
