Noradrenergic inputs to the basolateral amygdala have bidirectional effects on coping behavior and neuronal activity in mice

Kavli Affiliate: Marina Picciotto | Authors: Alexa R. Soares, Caroline Fai, Yann S. Mineur and Marina R. Picciotto | Summary: implicated in major depressive disorder and hyperactive NE signaling associated with post-traumatic stress disorder, suggesting that adequate mood regulation requires optimal NE levels. The basolateral amygdala (BLA) is a hub for stress processing and receives […]
