Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Kimberly A Maguschak"
Kimberly A Maguschak's research focuses primarily on the role of WNT/β-catenin signaling pathways in neural mechanisms related to behavior, learning, and memory, suggesting a significant connection between these pathways and synaptic plasticity.
Her studies highlight the dynamic regulation of Wnt signaling genes during fear memory formation, indicating their importance in amygdala-dependent learning processes.
Additionally, her work emphasizes the necessity of β-catenin for memory consolidation and explores the interactions between different neurotransmitter systems, such as endocannabinoids, in facilitating the extinction of conditioned fear responses.
