• Hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal and hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axes: sex differences in regulation of stress responsivity (2017, background): “In addition to the medial eminence and autonomic nuclei projecting neurons, the PVN contains neurons that project to the forebrain and other hypothalamic nuclei to mediate freezing and other behavioral responses (Fuzesi, Daviu, Wamsteeker Cusulin, Bonin, & Bains, 2016; Knobloch et al., 2012).”
• AMYGDALA MICROCIRCUITS CONTROLLING LEARNED FEAR (2014, background): “Supporting this view, release of endogenous oxytocin in CeL attenuates conditioned freezing (Knobloch et al., 2012), presumably through the activation of CeL-Off cells.”
