Parabrachial CGRP neurons modulate active defensive behavior under a naturalistic threat by Gyeong Hee Pyeon, Hyewon Cho, Byung Min Chung, June-Seek Choi, Yong Sang Jo

“…Our electrophysiological results revealed that CGRP neurons encode the intensity of aversive stimuli through variations in firing durations and amplitudes. Optogenetic activation of CGRP neurons during robot chasing elevated flight responses in both conditioning and retention tests, presumably by amplifying the perception of the threat as more imminent and dangerous. …”
