“…For example, activation of the amygdala is thought to facilitate information transfer from the perirhinal cortex to the entorhinal cortex, which in turn would influence the input to the hippocampus (Kajiwara et al, 2003; Paz et al, 2006). In addition, stimulation of the BLA-entorhinal cortex pathway was previously found to enhance hippocampal-dependent memories (Wahlstrom et al, 2018). Additional support for the importance of this perirhinal-entorhinal pathway comes from past studies showing that BLA stimulation modulated hippocampal LTP in the dentate gyrus (Abe, 2001; Akirav and Richter-Levin, 2002; Vouimba and Richter-Levin, 2005), which receives input from the entorhinal cortex but not from the BLA (Pitkänen et al, 2000; Witter and Amaral, 2004).…”
