All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
transsynaptic tracer
Sign
unknown
Evidence
The motor-related VAL complex of the thalamus provided additional monosynaptic input to Kremen1+ SPNs.

Named in the paper
“ventral anterior-lateral (VAL) complex” and “Kremen1+ SPNs in dorsal striatum”
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

“VAL is reported as an additional motor-related thalamic input.”
