Beta-adrenergic receptors support attention to extinction learning that occurs in the absence, but not the presence, of a context change
The noradrenergic (NA)-system is an important regulator of cognitive function. It contributes to extinction learning(EL), and in disorders where EL is impaired NA-dysfunction has been postulated. We explored whether NA acting on beta-adrenergic-receptors (β-AR), regulates EL that depends on context,...
