SI (Substantia innominata) projects to BLN (basolateral amygdaloid nuclear complex)

Species: Rat
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: modulatory
Evidence: Cre-dependent eNpHR3.0-eYFP virus infused into the NBM of ChAT::Cre rats labelled only cholinergic cells and produced eYFP-positive axon terminals in the basolateral amygdala.
Source: Basal forebrain cholinergic signaling in the basolateral amygdala promotes strength and durability of fear memories

Named in the paper: “nucleus basalis of Meynert (NBM)” and “BLA”
Made by: an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
Checked by: a second AI model (claude-opus-5) agrees, 2026-10-09
“NBM infusion gave eYFP-positive BLA terminals restricted to cholinergic cells.”
