    Eur J Neurosci 16:1223-6. 2002
    ..These findings indicate that the degree of activation of the noradrenergic system within the amygdala in response to a novel, emotionally arousing experience predicts the extent of long-term memory for that experience...

    Ann N Y Acad Sci 985:273-93. 2003
    ..The findings suggest further that this memory-modulatory system may be involved in the formation of traumatic memories and posttraumatic stress disorder in human subjects...

    Department of Neurobiology and Behavior, University of California, Irvine, USA
    Behav Neurosci 117:320-6. 2003
    ..Amygdala ACh release was positively correlated with performance on the hippocampus-dependent task. These findings suggest that activation of the amygdala promotes processing in other neural systems important for learning and memory...

    Christa K McIntyre
    Department of Neurobiology and Behavior, University of California, Irvine, CA 92697, USA
    Neurobiol Learn Mem 79:177-83. 2003
    ..These findings suggest that differences in release of acetylcholine across brain areas may provide a neurobiological marker of individual differences in selection of the strategies rats use to solve a learning task...

    J Neurosci 22:1171-6. 2002
    ..These findings suggest that ACh release may reflect activation and participation of the hippocampus in learning and memory, but in a manner that can be detrimental to performance on a task dependent on another brain area...
