In the recent years the perirhinal cortex (PRh) has been identified as a crucial brain area in fear learning. Since the neurotrophin BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) is an important mediator of synaptic plasticity and also crucially involved in memory consolidation of several learning paradi...
