BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus) functionally connects to PL (Prelimbic area)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
electrical stimulation
Sign
unknown
Evidence
Electrical stimulation of the basolateral amygdala in behaving mice evoked field postsynaptic potentials in the medial prefrontal cortex. These potentials showed paired-pulse facilitation peaking at 40 ms and a fast-rising, long-lasting LTP after high-frequency stimulation.
Measurements
  • conduction delay: 14.3 ms (SEM 1)
Source

Different forms of decision-making involve changes in the synaptic strength of the thalamic, hippocampal, and amygdalar afferents to the medial prefrontal cortex

Named in the paper
“basolateral amygdala (BLA)” and “prelimbic/infralimbic area of the mPFC”
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) disagrees, 2026-10-10

“The 14.3 ± 1 ms value is a time-to-peak latency, so calling it a conduction delay misstates the measure; onset latencies are in Table 1.”

Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
