Evidence
The central thalamic nucleus provided a significantly higher proportion of inputs to pDMS D2-MSNs than to D1-MSNs.

DOI 10.1523/eneuro.0348-20.2020 · PubMed 33380525 · PMC7877463, Fig. 2
Named in the paper
“central thalamic nucleus (CM)” and “D2-MSNs in the posterior dorsomedial striatum (pDMS)”
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

“The central thalamic nucleus supplies 3.10% of D2-MSN inputs and is significantly biased toward D2-MSNs.”

Status

proposed

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