EphrinB2 in excitatory neurons and astrocytes in the basolateral amygdala controls long-term fear memory formation

Abstract EphrinB2 regulates synaptic transmission and morphology however its role in memory formation is unknown. Here we show that deleting ephrinB2 from excitatory neurons in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) of male mice impairs long-term (LTM), but not short-term (STM), fear memory formation. Delet...
