PB (Parabrachial nucleus) projects to CEAc (Central amygdalar nucleus, capsular part)

Sign

Evidence
Green retrobeads placed in the CeAlc retrogradely labelled neurons in the PBelo, and over 95% of these retrogradely labelled cells also expressed the Cre-dependent mCherry marking CGRP neurons. Retrograde CAV2-Cre injected into the CeAlc likewise drove Cre-dependent transgene expression in upstream PBN neurons.
Measurements
  • fraction of labelled neurons: 0.95

Checked by

a second AI model (claude-opus-5) agrees, 2026-10-09

“Retrobeads in CeAlc labelled PBelo neurons, >95% mCherry-positive, consistent with the stated fraction.”
