This confocal image shows the innervation of dopaminergic neurons in the caudal linear raphe nucleus by the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) and the activation pattern of these neurons during fear memory consolidation. Dopaminergic neurons were co-immunostained with c-Fos (yellow) and tyrosine hydroxylase (cyan), while hM3Dq-expressing BNST axons were visualized by anti-RPF immunostaining (red). Activation of GABAergic neurons of BNST during fear conditioning or memory consolidation resulted in an enhanced cue-related fear recall. For more information, see the article by Bruzsik et al. (pages 1982–1995). Cover image: Biborka Bruzsik and Laszlo Biro.
