The Expression of Contextual Fear Conditioning Involves Activation of an NMDA Receptor–Nitric Oxide Pathway in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex

The ventral portion of medial prefrontal cortex (vMPFC) is involved in contextual fear-conditioning expression in rats. In the present study, we investigated the role of local N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) glutamate receptors and nitric oxide (NO) in vMPFC on the behavioral (freezing) and cardiova...
