Hippocampal Theta Input to the Amygdala Shapes Feedforward Inhibition to Gate Heterosynaptic Plasticity

•Theta stimulation of CA1 ventral hippocampal fibers activates amygdala interneurons•Interneurons induce feedforward inhibition that hyperpolarizes principal neurons•Theta-evoked inhibition attenuates to broaden excitation on principal neurons•Feedforward inhibition gates heterosynaptic plasticity v...
