- Evidence
- With cre-dependent ChR2 confined to GABAergic basal amygdala neurons in vGAT-cre mice, light evoked robust currents at 0 mV in vH pyramidal neurons that were insensitive to NBQX but blocked by gabazine, demonstrating a direct long-range inhibitory connection (n = 6 neurons).

- Named in the paper
- “BA (vGAT+ neurons)” and “vH pyramidal neurons”
- Made by
- an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-10
- Checked by
a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-10
“The vGAT+ BA input was NBQX-insensitive but gabazine-blocked (n=6).”
- Status
proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
