Gastrin-releasing peptide signaling plays a limited and subtle role in amygdala physiology and aversive memory.

Gastrin-releasing peptide signaling plays a limited and subtle role in amygdala physiology and aversive memory.

Links between synaptic plasticity in the lateral amygdala (LA) and Pavlovian fear learning are well established. Neuropeptides including gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) can modulate LA function. GRP increases inhibition in the LA and mice lacking the GRP receptor (GRPR KO) show more pronounced and p...
