Central amygdala circuitry modulates nociceptive processing through differential hierarchical interaction with affective network dynamics

In order to examine how central amygdala (CE) local circuitry interacts with brain-wide affective states, Wank et al performed gene expression analysis and optogenetic fMRI in mice, using basic nociception as a proxy. They found evidence for diverging roles of two major CE neuronal populations in mo...
