ABSTRACT The nucleus of Darkschewitsch (ND), mainly composed GABAergic neurons, is widely recognized as a component the eye-movement controlling system. However, functional contribution ND neurons (NDGABA) in animal behavior largely unknown. Here, we show that NDGABA were selectively activated by different types fear stimuli, such predator odor and foot shock. Optogenetic chemogenetic manipulations revealed mediate freezing behavior. Moreover, using circuit-based optogenetic neuroanatomical tracing methods, identified an excitatory pathway from lateral periaqueductal gray (lPAG) to induces exciting inhibitory outputs motor-related gigantocellular reticular nucleus, ventral part (GiV). Together, these findings indicate population novel hub for defensive response relaying fearful information lPAG GiV, mechanism critical understanding how encoded mammalian brain.

The zona incerta (ZI) is a subthalamic region composed by loosely packed neurochemically mixed neurons, juxtaposed to the main ascending and descending bundles. extreme neurochemical diversity that characterizes this area, together with diffuseness of its connections entire neuraxis hard-to-reach positioning in brain caused ZI keep halo mystery for over century. However, last decades, rich albeit fragmentary body knowledge regarding both incertal anatomical functional implications has been built mostly based on rodent studies lack cohesion makes difficult depict an integrated, exhaustive picture roles. This review aims provide unified resource summarizes current profile interactions rodents non-human primates significance connections, highlighting aspects still unbeknown research.

Over-generalized fear is a maladaptive response to harmless stimuli or situations characteristic of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other anxiety disorders. The dorsal dentate gyrus (dDG) contains engram cells that play crucial role in accurate memory retrieval. However, the coordination mechanism neuronal subpopulations within dDG network during generalization not well understood. Here, with Tet-off system combined immunostaining two-photon calcium imaging, we report labeled conditioned context constitutes significantly higher proportion neurons activated similar where mice show generalized fear. activation these encoding both sufficient necessary for inducing context. Activities mossy ventral (vMCs) are suppressed showing context, activating vMCs-dDG pathway suppresses but Finally, modifying engrams “safety” signals effectively rescues generalization. These findings reveal competitive advantage underlies generalization, which can be rescued by engrams, provide novel insights into as basis

Surgery can induce severe neuroinflammation and negative emotional symptoms, such as anxiety-like behaviour. We studied whether reactive astrocytes in the zona incerta (ZI) mediate surgery-induced anxiety mice.
