Acute Food Deprivation Rapidly Modifies Valence-Coding Microcircuits in the Amygdala Open
Summary In the quest for food, we may expend effort and increase our vulnerability to potential threats. Motivation to seek food is dynamic, varying with homeostatic need. What mechanisms underlie these changes? Basolateral amygdala neuron…

Amygdala inputs to prefrontal cortex guide behavior amid conflicting cues of reward and punishment Open
Orchestrating appropriate behavioral responses in the face of competing signals that predict either rewards or threats in the environment is crucial for survival. The basolateral nucleus of the amygdala (BLA) and prelimbic (PL) medial pref…

Bidirectional modulation of anxiety-related and social behaviors by amygdala projections to the medial prefrontal cortex Open
The basolateral amygdala (BLA) and the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) modulate anxiety and social behaviors. It remains to be elucidated, however, whether direct projections from the BLA to the mPFC play a functional role in these behavio…
