Amygdala inactivation blocks expression of conditioned memory modulation and the promotion of avoidance and freezing.

abstract：:Social signals play a primary role in regulating social relationships among male mice. The present series of experiments investigated the neural mechanisms underlying an induction of amicable cues that facilitate social approach in male mice of the C57BL/6 (B6) and BALB/c (BALB) strains. Male mice exhibit approach beh...
