Resumo

During Pavlovian auditory fear conditioning a previously neutral auditory stimulus (CS) gains emotional significance through pairing with a noxious unconditioned stimulus (US). These associations are believed to be formed by way of plasticity at auditory input synapses on principal neurons of the lateral nucleus of the amygdala (LA). While the LA has been implicated as a key brain structure for fear learning, how its network of cellular components performs these operations is not yet known...
