Mesolimbic dopaminergic pathways in fear conditioning

MA Pezze, J Feldon - Progress in neurobiology, 2004 - Elsevier
One of the most common paradigms used to study the biological basis of emotion, as well
as of learning and memory, is Pavlovian fear conditioning. In the acquisition phase of a fear …

Cognitive deficits caused by prefrontal cortical and hippocampal neural disinhibition

T Bast, M Pezze, S McGarrity - British journal of pharmacology, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
We review recent evidence concerning the significance of inhibitory GABA transmission and
of neural disinhibition, that is, deficient GABA transmission, within the prefrontal cortex and …

A survey of field-based testing techniques
