A time-dependent role for the transcription factor CREB in neuronal allocation to an engram underlying a fear memory revealed using a novel in vivo optogenetic tool to modulate CREB function
The internal representation of an experience is thought to be encoded by long-lasting physical changes to the brain (“engrams”) . Previously, we and others showed within the lateral amygdala (LA), a region cri...

Characterization of Free-Standing Nano-Membranes by Using Ellipsometry
The thickness of the pellicle is only a few tens of microns in extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL). This is because the absorption loss by the pellicle is high. Thus, the thickness and contamination on the ...

Neuronal Allocation to a Hippocampal Engram
The dentate gyrus (DG) is important for encoding contextual memories, but little is known about how a population of DG neurons comes to encode and support a particular memory. One possibility is that recruitme...

Open AccessSound tuning of amygdala plasticity in auditory fear conditioning
Various auditory tones have been used as conditioned stimuli (CS) for fear conditioning, but researchers have largely neglected the effect that different types of auditory tones may have on fear memory process...

mGluR2/3 in the Lateral Amygdala is Required for Fear Extinction: Cortical Input Synapses onto the Lateral Amygdala as a Target Site of the mGluR2/3 Action
Various subtypes of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) have been implicated in fear extinction, but mGluR2/3 subtype has not been tested. Here, we found that microinjection of an mGluR2/3 antagonist, LY...

GluA1 phosphorylation at serine 831 in the lateral amygdala is required for fear renewal
The authors show that extinction of fear conditioning lowers the threshold for synaptic potentiation in the lateral amygdala (LA), and fear renewal-inducing stimuli induce phosphorylation of AMPAR subunit GluA...

Two efficient algorithms for arithmetic of elliptic curves using Frobenius map
In this paper, we present two efficient algorithms computing scalar multiplications of a point in an elliptic curve defined over a small finite field, the Frobenius map of which has small trace. Both methods u...

Conditional correlation attack on nonlinear filter generators
In this paper, the optimum correlation attack recently introduced by R. Anderson is improved to be applicable to most of the nonlinear filter generators. We propose a conditional correlation attack by introduc...
