Surface morphology of amygdala is associated with trait anxiety. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Previous neuroimaging studies have suggested a role of amygdala in trait anxiety level, in which amygdala was typically treated as a whole. To date, it remains unknown whether the morphology of specific subregions of amygdala are associated with trait ...

Diversity of interneurons in the lateral and basal amygdala [PDF]

open access: yesnpj Science of Learning, 2020
AbstractThe basolateral amygdala (BLA) is a temporal lobe structure that contributes to a host of behaviors. In particular, it is a central player in learning about aversive events and thus assigning emotional valence to sensory events. It is a cortical-like structure and contains glutamatergic pyramidal neurons and GABAergic interneurons.

MRI data confirm the selective involvement of thalamic and amygdalar nuclei in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and primary lateral sclerosis

open access: yesData in Brief, 2020
A standardised imaging protocol was implemented to evaluate disease burden in specific thalamic and amygdalar nuclei in 133 carefully phenotyped and genotyped motor neuron disease patients.

The Central Amygdala Joins the Lateral Amygdala in the Fear Memory Party [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2007
Negative emotions and social isolation are at the core of some anxiety disorders. Pavlovian fear conditioning, characterized by associations between an initially neutral stimulus [conditioned stimulus (CS)] and a biologically relevant fearful stimulus such as a footshock [unconditioned stimulus ...

Synaptic correlates of associative fear memory in the lateral amygdala

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Successful adaptation to the environment requires accurate responding to external threats by recalling specific memories. However, elucidating underlying neural substrates of associative fear memory was limited due to the difficulties in direct ...

Pavlovian fear conditioning activates a common pattern of neurons in the lateral amygdala of individual brains. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Understanding the physical encoding of a memory (the engram) is a fundamental question in neuroscience. Although it has been established that the lateral amygdala is a key site for encoding associative fear memory, it is currently unclear whether the ...

Gastrin-releasing peptide signaling plays a limited and subtle role in amygdala physiology and aversive memory. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Links between synaptic plasticity in the lateral amygdala (LA) and Pavlovian fear learning are well established. Neuropeptides including gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) can modulate LA function. GRP increases inhibition in the LA and mice lacking the GRP

The amygdala–insula–medial prefrontal cortex–lateral prefrontal cortex pathway and its disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2022
Smith and Lane have suggested a model of emotion processing with at least three stations: areas like the amygdala, which process discrete body features areas like the anterior insula, which process whole-body patterns and areas like the medial prefrontal

The left amygdala knows fear: laterality in the amygdala response to fearful eyes [PDF]

open access: yesSocial Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience, 2008
The detection of threat is a role that the amygdala plays well, evidenced by its increased response to fearful faces in human neuroimaging studies. A critical element of the fearful face is an increase in eye white area (EWA), hypothesized to be a significant cue in activating the amygdala. However, another important social signal that can increase EWA

Structural connectivity of the developing human amygdala. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
A large corpus of research suggests that there are changes in the manner and degree to which the amygdala supports cognitive and emotional function across development.
