ORB (Orbital area) projects to BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: After AAV-CaMKIIa-ChR2-EYFP was injected into the lateral/ventral orbitofrontal cortex, fluorescent axon terminals from the injection site were seen in the anterior portion of the basolateral amygdala.
Source: Stress induces insertion of calcium-permeable AMPA receptors in the OFC–BLA synapse and modulates emotional behaviours in mice

Made by: an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
Checked by: a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-09
“ChR2-EYFP injected into lateral/ventral OFC produced labelled axon terminals in the anterior BLA (Fig. 1a,b), and Fig. 5b shows OFC axons in the BLA.”
