| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Endocannabinoids were produced by activation of postsynaptic serotonin (5-HT) receptor as well as decreased presynaptic 5-HT release by the activation of the CB1 receptor in the amygdala. We demonstrated that it was caused by calcium- and neuronal activity-dependent manner. In addition, it was revealed that excitability of the pyramidal neuron in the adult amygdala was enhanced by aversive stress at juvenile periods and by activations of 5-HTergic receptors. We also revealed that the 5-HT7 receptor of CA3 pyramidal cell in the ventral hippocampus participated in recalls of the fear memory through the activation of Ih current.
