All claims for this connection- Species

- Evidence
- After AAV-CaMKII-ChR2-eYFP was injected into the aIC, labelled axon terminals in the amygdala were seen mainly in the basolateral nucleus.

- Named in the paper
- “anterior insular cortex (aIC)” and “BLA, basolateral amygdaloid nucleus”

- 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
“Fig. 5F and its text show labelled aIC terminals mainly in the BLA, together with CeA.”
- Status
proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
