Nitric oxide signalling in the basolateral complex of the amygdala: an extension of NMDA receptor activation during Pavlovian fear conditioning and expression

N-methyl-D-asparate (NMDA) receptors located within the basolateral complex of the amygdala are required for the consolidation and expression of Pavlovian conditioned fear. The events downstream of receptor activation that mediate these processes are not well defined. An intermediate step that may b...
