Some retrogradely labelled cells were seen in the ventral caudate/putamen. However, they showed little to no overlap with the sparse GFP-labelled Nts neurons there.

Made by an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0); a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) disagrees. “The paper says only the vast majority of CPu FG+ cells lacked GFP, with little to no colocalization, so a result of absent overstates it.”
