Light and electron microscopic analysis of enkephalin-like immunoreactivity in the basolateral amygdala, including evidence for convergence of enkephalin-containing axon terminals and norepinephrine transporter-containing axon terminals onto common targets.

Brain research.Brain Res.2016 Apr 1;1636:62-73. doi: 10.1016/j.brainres.2016.01.045. Epub 2016 Feb 2.
Modulatory interactions of opioids and norepinephrine (NE) in the anterior subdivision of the basolateral nucleus of the amygdala (BLa) are critical for the consolidation of memories of emotionally arousing experiences. Although there have been several studies of the noradrenergic system in the amyg

Marked differences in the number and type of synapses innervating the somata and primary dendrites of midbrain dopaminergic neurons, striatal cholinergic interneurons, and striatal spiny projection neurons in the rat.

Sizemore RJ1, Zhang R1, Lin N1, Goddard L1, Wastney T1, Parr-Brownlie LC1, Reynolds JN1, Oorschot DE1.

Elucidating the link between cellular activity and goal-directed behavior requires a fuller understanding of the mechanisms underlying burst firing in midbrain dopaminergic neurons and those that suppress activity during aversive or non-rewarding events. We have characterized the afferent synaptic c

Localization of the M2 muscarinic cholinergic receptor in dendrites, cholinergic terminals and non-cholinergic terminals in the rat basolateral amygdala: An ultrastructural analysis.

The Journal of comparative neurology.J Comp Neurol.2016 Jan 18. doi: 10.1002/cne.23959. [Epub ahead of print]
Activation of M2 muscarinic receptors (M2Rs) in the rat anterior basolateral nucleus (BLa) is critical for the consolidation of memories of emotionally arousing events. In the present investigation immunocytochemistry at the electron microscopic level was used to determine which structures in the BL
