The claims behind it

clm-ryrxgyjvw7presentelectrical stimulationproposed

Electrical stimulation of thalamic fibers in the internal capsule evoked glutamatergic excitatory postsynaptic currents in principal neurons of the lateral amygdala in acute slices, with paired-pulse depression and stimulus-intensity-dependent amplitudes; these responses were reduced in 22q11DS model mice and the presynaptic release probability deficit was reversed by a Drd2 antagonist.

clm-tfvj7bkrqqpresentelectrical stimulationproposed

Chemogenetic silencing restricted to thalamo-LA projections (hM4Di expressed via CAV2-Cre from the LA plus Cre-dependent AAV in MGm, activated by CNO) lowered the amplitude of electrically evoked thalamo-LA EPSCs and altered paired-pulse ratio relative to controls, confirming a functional thalamic drive onto LA neurons.
