Fear, Startle, and Fear-Potentiated Startle : Probing Emotion in the Human Brain

open access: yes, 2003
The present thesis explored the neurobiological basis of three aspects of defense behaviors in humans. Positron emission tomography methodology was used, and changes in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) were measured as an index of neural activity ...

Heart Rate Variability Features as Predictors of Intermittent Theta‐Burst Stimulation Response in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Background Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with autonomic dysfunction as indicated by deficits in the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. These abnormalities are expressed as elevated heart rate and reduced heart rate variability (HRV), respectively.

Second-Order Olfactory-Mediated Fear-Potentiated Startle [PDF]

open access: yesLearning & Memory, 2002
Recently, we reported that discrete (4-sec) olfactory cues paired with footshock serve as effective conditioned stimuli (CSs) for potentiating the acoustic startle response in rats using the fear-potentiated startle paradigm. Because odors are such salient cues for the rat, and because of the robust olfactory conditioning observed previously, the ...

Predicting Fear Extinction in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
Fear extinction is the basis of exposure therapies for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but half of patients do not improve. Predicting fear extinction in individuals with PTSD may inform personalized exposure therapy development.

In the Blink of an Eye: Investigating the Role of Awareness  in Fear Responding by Measuring the Latency of  Startle Potentiation

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2012
The latency of startle reflex potentiation may shed light on the aware and unaware processes underlying associative learning, especially associative fear learning.

Developmental investigation of fear-potentiated startle across puberty [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Psychology, 2014
The goal of this study was to examine the association between affective development, puberty, and gender using the startle reflex as a marker of defensive mechanisms. Thirty-one male and thirty-five female adolescents aged ten to thirteen participated in a prospective study with up to five assessments.

Loop diuretics have anxiolytic effects in rat models of conditioned anxiety. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
A number of antiepileptic medications that modulate GABA(A) mediated synaptic transmission are anxiolytic. The loop diuretics furosemide (Lasix) and bumetanide (Bumex) are thought to have antiepileptic properties.
