Prefrontal cortex glucocorticoid receptors during fear memory consolidation shift the balance between salience and default-mode networks at retrieval in rats

This study shows that blocking glucocorticoid receptors in the dmPFC of rats after fear conditioning reduces memory specificity and shifts retrieval networks from salience to default-mode configurations.

Effects of Ayahuasca on Ethanol-Conditioned Place Preference and ΔFosB Expression in the Nucleus Accumbens in Mice

This study investigates whether ayahuasca reduces ethanol-induced conditioned place preference and affects ΔFosB expression in mice, finding that ayahuasca blocks ethanol preference without altering ΔFosB levels.

Remote contextual fear retrieval engages activity from salience network regions in rats

This study investigates how different training intensities affect systems consolidation of contextual fear memories in rats, showing differential activation patterns in salience network regions during remote retrieval.
