Diagram summarizing the present results. a Pinching of the skin increases 5-HT release in the CeA via CRF2 receptors in the DRN. b Stroking of the skin decreases 5-HT release in the CeA via CRF1 receptors and GABAA receptors in the DRN. CeA the central nucleus of the amygdala, DRN the dorsal raphe nucleus, CRFN CRF-containing neuron, 5-HTN serotonergic neuron, CRF 1 R CRF1 receptor, CRF 2 R CRF2 receptor, GABA A R GABAA receptor
