Dopamine Induces a Slow Afterdepolarization in Lateral Amygdala Neurons [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurophysiology, 2007
The amygdala and dopaminergic innervation thereunto are considered to cooperatively regulate emotional states and behaviors. The present experiments examined effects of dopamine on lateral amygdala (LA) neuron excitability by whole cell recordings. Bath application of dopamine induced slow afterdepolarization (sADP).

Left and right hemispheric lateralization of the amygdala in pain

open access: yesProgress 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.

Thalamic, hippocampal and basal ganglia pathology in primary lateral sclerosis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: Evidence from quantitative imaging data

open access: yesData in Brief, 2020
Primary lateral sclerosis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis are primarily associated with motor cortex and corticospinal tract pathology. A standardised, prospective, single-centre neuroimaging protocol was used to characterise thalamic, hippocampal and ...

Regional hypothalamic, amygdala, and midbrain periaqueductal gray matter recruitment during acute pain in awake humans: A 7-Tesla functional magnetic resonance imaging study

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2022
Over the past two decades, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have explored brain activation patterns during acute noxious stimuli. Whilst these human investigations have detailed changes in primarily cortical regions, they have generally not ...

Neural correlates of disaster-related prenatal maternal stress in young adults from Project Ice Storm: Focus on amygdala, hippocampus, and prefrontal cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
BackgroundStudies have shown that prenatal maternal stress alters volumes of the amygdala and hippocampus, and alters functional connectivity between the amygdala and prefrontal cortex.

Modulation of instrumental responding by a conditioned threat stimulus requires lateral and central amygdala

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2015
Two studies explored the role of the amygdala in response modulation by an aversive conditioned stimulus (CS) in rats. Experiment 1 investigated the role of amygdala circuitry in conditioned suppression using a paradigm in which licking for sucrose was ...

Neuropeptide S-mediated facilitation of synaptic transmission enforces subthreshold theta oscillations within the lateral amygdala. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The neuropeptide S (NPS) receptor system modulates neuronal circuit activity in the amygdala in conjunction with fear, anxiety and the expression and extinction of previously acquired fear memories.

The α1 subunit of the GABA(A) receptor modulates fear learning and plasticity in the lateral amygdala

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2009
Synaptic plasticity in the amydgala is essential for emotional learning. Fear conditioning, for example, depends on changes in excitatory transmission that occur following NMDA receptor activation and AMPA receptor modification in this region. The role

Hypothalamus and amygdala functional connectivity at rest in narcolepsy type 1

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2021
Introduction: functional and structural MRI studies suggest that the orexin (hypocretin) deficiency in the dorso-lateral hypothalamus of narcoleptic patients would influence both brain metabolism and perfusion and would cause reduction in cortical grey ...

Amount of fear extinction changes its underlying mechanisms

open access: yeseLife, 2017
There has been a longstanding debate on whether original fear memory is inhibited or erased after extinction. One possibility that reconciles this uncertainty is that the inhibition and erasure mechanisms are engaged in different phases (early or late ...
