COApm (Cortical amygdalar area, posterior part, medial zone) functionally connects to AOBmi (Accessory olfactory bulb, mitral layer)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: inhibitory
Evidence: Stimulating PmCo afferents in the granule cell layer evoked no EPSCs in mitral cells but did evoke slower, bicuculline-sensitive disynaptic IPSCs, and light trains suppressed firing in a subset of mitral cells. Paired with vomeronasal nerve stimulation, the same activation increased the gain of mitral cell responses.
Measurements: conduction delay: 17.1 ms (SEM 0.3), n = 28
connection probability: 0.333, n = 27

Named in the paper: “PmCo” and “AOB mitral cells (MCs)”
Made by: 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) disagrees, 2026-10-10
“The 0.333 value (9 of 27 cells) is the fraction of MCs whose firing was suppressed, not a connection probability, and 4 of 27 cells were facilitated instead.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
