Differential activation of anatomically defined neuronal subpopulations in the amygdala during fear conditioning and extinction [PDF]
, 2009 The amygdala is a key structure of the neuronal circuitry mediating expression and extinction of conditioned fear. However, fear memories are thought to be encoded in a larger network comprising the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and the ...

Crossing the midline: reducing attentional deficits via interhemispheric interactions [PDF]
, 2005 Patients with unilateral neglect and extinction show a profound lack of awareness of stimuli presented contralateral to their lesion. However, many processes of perception are intact and contralesional stimuli seem to reach a high level of representation,

No mass extinction for land plants at the Permian–Triassic transition
Nature Communications, 2019 It has been thought that land plants suffered a mass extinction along with animals at the end of the Permian. Here, Nowak et al. show that the apparent plant mass extinction is a result of biases in the fossil record and their reanalysis suggests a lower

Systemic Cellular Activation Mapping of an Extinction-Impaired Animal Model
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019 Fear extinction diminishes conditioned fear responses and impaired fear extinction has been reported to be related to anxiety disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Self-extinction through optimizing selection
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2013 Evolutionary suicide is a process in which selection drives a viable population to extinction. So far, such selection-driven self-extinction has been demonstrated in models with frequency-dependent selection. This is not surprising, since frequency-dependent selection can disconnect individual-level and population-level interests through environmental ...

SpeX Near-infrared Spectroscopic Extinction Curves in the Milky Way
The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 Interstellar dust extinction curves provide valuable information about dust properties, including the composition and size of the dust grains, and are essential to correct observations for the effects of interstellar dust.

Relaxation of selective constraints causes independent selenoprotein extinction in insect genomes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 BACKGROUND: Selenoproteins are a diverse family of proteins notable for the presence of the 21st amino acid, selenocysteine. Until very recently, all metazoan genomes investigated encoded selenoproteins, and these proteins had therefore been believed to ...

Extinction of cue-evoked drug-seeking relies on degrading hierarchical instrumental expectancies
, 2014 There has long been need for a behavioural intervention that attenuates cue-evoked drug-seeking, but the optimal method remains obscure. To address this, we report three approaches to extinguish cue-evoked drug-seeking measured in a Pavlovian to ...

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Advanced metastatic cancer is currently not curable and the major barrier to eliminating the disease in patients is the resistance of subpopulations of tumor cells to drug treatments.
