A thalamic-hippocampal CA1 signal for contextual fear memory suppression, extinction, and discrimination
Abstract The adaptive regulation of fear memories is a crucial neural function that prevents inappropriate fear expression. Fear memories can be acquired through contextual fear conditioning (CFC) which relies on the hippocampus. The thalamic nucleus reuniens (NR) is necessary to extinguish contextu...
