Gargiulo M, Argibay L, Molina V, Calfa G, Bender C
Behav Brain Res . 2024 Apr; 468:115017. PMID: 38679145
Growing evidence indicates a critical role of astrocytes in learning and memory. However, little is known about the role of basolateral amygdala complex (BLA-C) astrocytes in contextual fear conditioning (CFC),...

Champarini L, Herrera M, Comas Mutis R, Espejo P, Molina V, Calfa G, et al.
Hippocampus . 2022 Aug; 32(10):765-775. PMID: 36000813
Growth factors, such as insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), among others are known for their critical involvement in learning and memory processes. IGF-1 regulates cognitive functions, synapse density, neurotransmission, and...

Comas Mutis R, Espejo P, Martijena I, Molina V, Calfa G
Hippocampus . 2021 Jun; 31(10):1080-1091. PMID: 34190369
Reconsolidation of a contextual fear memory is a protein synthesis-dependent process in which a previously destabilized memory returns to a stable state. This process has become the subject of many...

Espejo P, Ortiz V, Martijena I, Molina V
Neurobiol Learn Mem . 2021 Jan; 179:107386. PMID: 33476748
The destabilization/reconsolidation process can be triggered by memory recall, allowing consolidated memories to be modified. We have previously reported that stress prior to fear conditioning induces memories that exhibit resistance...

Marin F, Franzen J, Troyner F, Molina V, Giachero M, Bertoglio L
Neuropharmacology . 2020 Oct; 181:108338. PMID: 33002500
Upon retrieval, an aversive memory can undergo destabilization and reconsolidation. A traumatic-like memory, however, may be resistant to this process. The present study sought to contribute with a strategy to...

de Sa Couto-Pereira N, Lampert C, Vieira A, Lazzaretti C, Kincheski G, Espejo P, et al.
Front Mol Neurosci . 2019 Jun; 12:134. PMID: 31191245
Early life experiences program lifelong responses to stress. In agreement, resilience and vulnerability to psychopathologies, such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), have been suggested to depend on the early background....

Ortiz V, Calfa G, Molina V, Martijena I
Prog Neuropsychopharmacol Biol Psychiatry . 2019 Apr; 93:197-204. PMID: 30978427
Fear memory reactivation does not always lead to memory destabilization-reconsolidation. For instance, fear memories formed following withdrawal from chronic ethanol consumption or a stressful event are less likely to become...

Schroyens N, Bender C, Alfei J, Molina V, Luyten L, Beckers T
Behav Brain Res . 2018 Nov; 359:172-180. PMID: 30391556
The present study aimed to investigate the influence of housing conditions on contextual fear memory malleability. Male Wistar rats were housed in enriched, standard, or impoverished conditions after weaning and...

Bender C, Giachero M, Comas-Mutis R, Molina V, Calfa G
Neurobiol Learn Mem . 2018 Sep; 155:412-421. PMID: 30195049
Fear extinction is defined as a decline in fear-conditioned responses following non-reinforced exposure to a fear conditioned stimulus, therefore the conditioned stimulus gains new predictive properties. Patients with anxiety related...

Ortiz V, Espejo P, Molina V, Martijena I
Prog Neuropsychopharmacol Biol Psychiatry . 2018 Aug; 89:9-15. PMID: 30145183
A 1-day fear memory in ethanol withdrawn (ETOH) rats is resistant to destabilization-reconsolidation process. However, d-cycloserine (DCS) reverts this disturbance. Considering that the formation of pathological fear memories in humans...
