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

Role of lateral amygdala calstabin2 in regulation of fear memory. [PDF]
Mol Brain, 2020 AbstractCalstabin2, also named FK506 binding protein 12.6 (FKBP12.6), is a subunit of ryanodine receptor subtype 2 (RyR2) macromolecular complex, an intracellular calcium channel. Studies from our and other’s lab have shown that hippocampal calstabin2 regulates spatial memory.

Left and right hemispheric lateralization of the amygdala in pain
Progress in Neurobiology, 2021 Hemispheric asymmetries within the brain have been identified across taxa and have been extensively studied since the early 19th century. Here, we discuss lateralization of a brain structure, the amygdala, and how this lateralization is reshaping how we understand the role of the amygdala in pain processing.

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

Presynaptic mechanisms determining the dynamic range of neurotransmitter release in the lateral amygdala [PDF]
, 2008 The amygdala is a central brain structure receiving sensory information from diverse regions of the central nervous system. Cortical and thalamic axons converge to the lateral amygdala (LA) which is thought to be the main site for fear-induced ...

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

GABA(B) receptor-mediated modulation of synaptic plasticity in the lateral amygdala [PDF]
, 2005 Fear conditioning, one of the most powerful and widely used methods to investigate the mechanisms of associative learning in animals, involves the pairing of an aversive stimulus such as a foot-shock (the unconditioned stimulus; US) with a neutral ...
