Dopamine D2-like receptors modulate unconditioned fear: role of the inferior colliculus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: A reduction of dopamine release or D2 receptor blockade in the terminal fields of the mesolimbic system clearly reduces conditioned fear.

Blood pressure variations real-time reflect the conditioned fear learning and memory. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The conditioned fear learning and memory occurs when a neutral conditioned stimulus (CS) is paired with an aversive unconditioned stimulus (US). This process is critically dependent on the amygdala and inevitably involves blood pressure (BP) alterations.

Conditioned fear extinction and reinstatement in a human fear-potentiated startle paradigm [PDF]

open access: yesLearning & Memory, 2006
The purpose of this study was to analyze fear extinction and reinstatement in humans using fear-potentiated startle. Participants were fear conditioned using a simple discrimination procedure with colored lights as the conditioned stimuli (CSs) and an airblast to the throat as the unconditioned stimulus (US).

Expression of freezing and fear‐potentiated startle during sustained fear in mice [PDF]

open access: yesGenes, Brain and Behavior, 2015
Fear‐potentiated acoustic startle paradigms have been used to investigate phasic and sustained components of conditioned fear in rats and humans. This study describes a novel training protocol to assess phasic and sustained fear in freely behaving C57BL/6J mice, using freezing and/or fear‐potentiated startle as measures of fear, thereby, if needed ...

High current anxiety symptoms, but not a past anxiety disorder diagnosis, are associated with impaired fear extinction.

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2016
Although impaired fear extinction has repeatedly been demonstrated in patients with anxiety disorders, little is known about whether these impairments persist after treatment.

Stress-Related Hormonal Assays for Fear-Potentiated Startle Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The goal of this study is to identify factors associated with emotion dysregulation . This research aims to understand whether and how psychophysiological and biological factors modulate fear learning and memory in women who are and are not using ...

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.

Stress Resilience Assessment Based on Physiological Features in Selection of Air Traffic Controllers

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Stress resilience is recognized as an important occupational prerequisite for air traffic controllers (ATCs). A system for input/output multimodal stress resilience assessment based on physiological features has been developed and applied in the ATC ...

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.
