Synaptic plasticity in fear conditioning circuits: induction of LTP in the lateral nucleus of the amygdala by stimulation of the medial geniculate body
Open accessAbstract
Electrical stimulation of the medial geniculate body in the anesthetized rat produces an evoked potential in the lateral nucleus of the amygdala. The potential varies in amplitude with stimulus intensity and reaches peak amplitude in 8.5 msec on the average. High-frequency stimulation of the pathway produces long-lasting increases in the amplitude and slope of the potential. These robust and enduring experience-dependent modifications in neural transmission occur in a pathway known to be involved in the formation of emotional memories and may offer a means for examining the cellular mechanisms of emotional learning, as well as a new approach to questions concerning the relevance of long-term potentiation to normal mnemonic processes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
