Reposted by Yuki MochizukiSteve Maren @stevemaren.bsky.social · 24/05/2025🚨New paper alert! 🚨 Inactivation of the nucleus reuniens causes relapse of extinguished fear. Here we show this “circuit-induced relapse” depends on hippocampal fear memories and is mediated by hippocampal engrams. Congrats to the team!urldefense.comHippocampal ensembles regulate circuit-induced relapse of extinguished fearMolecular Psychiatry - Hippocampal ensembles regulate circuit-induced relapse of extinguished fear 27122
