The Amygdala, Fear, and Memory

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2003
Abstract: Lesions of the frontotemporal region of the amygdala, which includes lateral and basal nuclei, cause a loss of conditional fear responses, such as freezing, even when the lesions are made over a year and a half from the original training. These amygdala‐damaged animals are not hyperactive and show normal reactivity to strong stimuli such as ...

Selective Erasure of a Fear Memory

Science, 2009
Memories are thought to be encoded by sparsely distributed groups of neurons. However, identifying the precise neurons supporting a given memory (the memory trace) has been a long-standing challenge. We have shown previously that lateral amygdala (LA) neurons with increased cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element–binding protein (CREB) are ...

Propranolol Decreases Fear Expression by Modulating Fear Memory Traces

Biological Psychiatry, 2021
Posttraumatic stress disorder can develop after a traumatic event and results in heightened, inappropriate fear and anxiety. Although approximately 8% of the U.S. population is affected by posttraumatic stress disorder, only two drugs have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat it, both with limited efficacy.

Fear and Fear Memory

German Research, 2016
AbstractIt's a worrying fact that one in five people will experience an anxiety disorder at some point in their lives. This makes it all the more important to understand the cellular basis and molecular mechanisms of these emotions. Neurophysiology research is providing some illuminating answers.

Malleable Memories of Fear

Science, 2004
The recall of a memory by a reminder stimulus places this memory back into an active and labile state, from which it is reconsolidated into an inactive and stable state. Is this cellular reconsolidation of memory simply a recapitulation of the events engaged at consolidation, or is there a more complicated process at work (see the ...
