Cholinergic projections from the basal forebrain of rat to the amygdala
Open accessAbstract
Cholinergic afferents to the amygdala from the basal forebrain were studied using di-isopropyl fluorophosphate-AChE histochemistry in combination with retrograde tracing using various fluorescent dyes. Cells sending their axons to the amygdala and staining intensely for AChE were located mainly in the nucleus of the substantia innominata. They also were found in the ventral part of the globus pallidus, the horizontal limb of the nucleus tractus diagonalis Broca, and the nucleus interstitialis ansae lenticularis. A correspondence was established between these cells and cells staining for choline acetyltransferase by immunohistochemistry in both distribution and morphology. Non-cholinergic neurons which send their axons to the amygdala also were found in the substantia innominata complex.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
