BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus) functionally connects to PL (Prelimbic area)
All claims for this connection- Species

- Sign
- unknown
- Evidence
- After expressing ChR2 in BLA neurons, blue-light pulses delivered through a probe in the mPFC evoked local field responses at a short latency (~5 ms after each pulse), appearing about 12 days post-injection; a second, longer-latency (~32 ms) component appeared later and was attributed by the authors to polysynaptic network activity within the mPFC.
- Measurements
- conduction delay: 5 ms, n = 8

DOI 10.1038/nn.4510 · PubMed 28218915 · PMC5374019, Fig. 3j; Results, projection mapping section- Named in the paper
- “basolateral amygdala (BLA)” and “medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC)”
- 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-5-5) disagrees, 2026-10-09
“The paper records from and names only the mPFC, never the prelimbic area specifically, so the object region is narrower than the paper's own region.”
- Status
proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
