"Stress-induced acetylcholine signaling in the hippocampus: too much of a good thing?," by Marina Picciotto, Charles BG Murphy Professor in Psychiatry, Deputy Chair for Basic Science, Professor of Neuroscience and of Pharmacology, Yale University
This seminar will present data that increasing activity of ACh inputs to the hippocampus selectively induces stress-dependent behaviors, including increased susceptibility to social stress. Our working hypothesis-ACh signaling in hippocampus may be relevant to negative encoding bias, that is, increased focus on negative events, experienced by individuals with depression.
