The Amygdala in Brain Function: Basic and Clinical Approachesdoi:10.1016/s1474-4422(04)00913-5Kim L Huhman
The amygdala is a region of the brain primarily associated with emotional processes. It is located in the medial temporal lobe, just anterior to (in front of) the hippocampus. Similar to the hippocampus, the amygdala is a paired structure, with one locat
The amygdala is a collection of nuclei deep in the anterior temporal lobe which receives highly processed sensory information and which has extensive, reciprocal connections with a large number of other brain structures whose function can be modulated by emotion. ...
Sexual pheromones and the evolution of the reward system of the brain: The chemosensory function of the amygdala The amygdala of all tetrapod vertebrates receives direct projections from the main and accessory olfactory bulbs, and the strong similarities in the organi... E Lanuza,A Novejarque,J ...
BNST has received increasing attention following the discovery that it connects to limbic brain regions involved in stress, homeostasis, and reward. Most of the literature on BNST function emphasizes its role in aversive motivational processes such as stress, anxiety and drug withdrawal. However, some...
The basolateral amygdala is involved in the acquisition and representation of reinforcement value, apparently through its connections with ventral striatal systems and with the orbitofrontal cortex. The dentral , however, contributes heavily to attentional function in conditioning, by way of its influence...
Interestingly, the area of the splenial portion of the corpus callosum is larger in female monkeys. The size of the amygdala showed no sex difference. 展开 关键词: Sexual dimorphism MRI Corpus callosum Amygdala Brain volume Rhesus monkey
A schizophrenia-related sensorimotor deficit links α3-containing GABAA receptors to a dopamine hyperfunction Overactivity of the dopaminergic system in the brain is considered to be a contributing factor to the development and symptomatology of schizophrenia. Ther... Yee BK,R Keist,von Boehmer L,....
Pain-related plasticity in the CeLC results in increased nocifensive and affective pain behavior, although the amygdala can also contribute to endogenous pain inhibition under certain circumstances. Thus, it appears that the amygdala has a dual pain-enhancing and pain-inhibiting function, which may ...
