ACA (Anterior cingulate area) projects to BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus)

- Strength
- strong
- Evidence
- Expressing the presynaptic marker eGFP-Syb2 in caudal ACC neurons gave strong labelled terminals in the BLA in all three mice, making it the main amygdala target. Most Syb2 puncta in the BLA co-localized with VGLUT1 rather than VGAT.

- Named in the paper
- “anterior cingulate cortex (ACC)” and “basolateral nucleus of amygdala (BLA)”
- 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-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-09
“eGFP-Syb2 terminals were strong in the BLA across three mice, and most co-localized puncta were VGLUT1-positive (89.2%).”
- Status
proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
