Distinct molecular components for thalamic- and cortical-dependent plasticity in the lateral amygdala

Distinct molecular components for thalamic- and cortical-dependent plasticity in the lateral amygdala

N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR)-dependent long-term depression (LTD) in the lateral nucleus of the amygdala (LA) is a form of synaptic plasticity thought to be a cellular substrate for the extinction of fear memory. The LA receives converging inputs from the sensory thalamus and neocortex that...
