Selective Extinction through Cognitive Evaluation: Linking Emotion Regulation and Extinction

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, 2018
It has been proposed that the extinction of conditioned fear and the instructed regulation of emotion engage common ventromedial prefrontal (vmPFC) circuitry, indicating common underlying processes. Here we report an fMRI study using a novel task designed to investigate the neural overlap between cognitive emotion regulation and extinction of ...

Interstellar Extinction from Large Surveys

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2003
Under some assumptions, information on interstellar extinction may be obtained from modern large photometric survey data. Virtual Observatory facilities allow users to make a fast and correct cross-identification of objects from various surveys.

Chamber volume development, metabolic rates, and selective extinction in cephalopods. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2020
Reconstructing the physiology of extinct organisms is key to understanding mechanisms of selective extinction during biotic crises. Soft tissues of extinct organisms are rarely preserved and, therefore, a proxy for physiological aspects is needed.

Selective enhancement of fear extinction by inhibiting neuronal adenylyl cyclase 1 (AC1) in aged mice

open access: yesMolecular Brain
Adenylyl cyclase 1 (AC1) is a selective subtype of ACs, which is selectively expressed in neurons. The activation of AC1 is activity-dependent, and AC1 plays an important role in cortical excitation that contributes to chronic pain and related emotional ...

On Triassic Murchisonia-like gastropods—surviving the end-Permian extinction to become extinct in the Late Triassic [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica, 2023
High-spired Murchisonia-like slit-band gastropods are an important component of late Paleozoic gastropod faunas. Twenty-seven genera of such gastropods have been reported from the Permian, most of which representing the caenogastropod family ...

Sexual selection and the risk of extinction in birds [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2003
The relationship between sexual selection and extinction risk has rarely been investigated. This is unfortunate because extinction plays a key role in determining the patterns of species richness seen in extant clades, which form the basis of comparative studies into the role that sexual selection may play in promoting speciation.

Selective δ-Opioid Receptor Agonist, KNT-127, Facilitates Contextual Fear Extinction via Infralimbic Cortex and Amygdala in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022
Facilitation of fear extinction is a desirable action for the drugs to treat fear-related diseases, such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We previously reported that a selective agonist of the δ-opioid receptor (DOP), KNT-127, facilitates ...

Dynamics of extinction and the selection of nature reserves [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2002
Familiar quantitative reserve-selection techniques are tailored to simple decision problems, where the representation of species is sought at minimum cost. However, conservationists have begun to ask whether representing species in reserve networks is sufficient to avoid local extinctions within selected areas.
