Evidence
After retrograde Cre-dependent AAV injection into the IPAC of D1-cre mice, EYFP-labelled D1-expressing deep-layer pyramidal neurons were found in PL, though with somewhat lower signal intensity than in IL.

Named in the paper
“prelimbic cortex (PL)” and “interstitial nucleus of the posterior limb of the anterior commissure (IPAC)”
Made by
an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
Checked by

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

“PL also contained EYFP-labelled neurons, quantified in Fig. 4d with a nonsignificant trend lower than IL.”
