Amygdala role in emotion was reviewed in reference to recent amygdala lesion studies and neuronal responses in the rat amygdala to conditioned stimuli. Extensive lesion studies suggest that the amygdala is crucial in various kinds of motivated and emotional behavior, and related autonomic responses. ...
Thus, the main objective of this study was to investigate the role of amygdala subnuclei in the modulation of neuropathic pain, including the affective-motivational axis, in an experimental model of peripheral neuropathy. The specific goals were as follows: (1) To evaluate the nociceptive ...
9420Accesses 19Altmetric Abstract A limbic brain area, the amygdala plays a key role in emotional responses and affective states and disorders such as learned fear, anxiety, and depression. The amygdala has also emerged as an important brain center for the emotional–affective dimension of pain and...

Evidence from animal and human studies has suggested that the amygdala plays a role in detecting threat and in directing attention to the eyes. Nevertheless, there has been no systematic investigation of whether the amygdala specifically facilitates atte
Given the prominent role of FAAH In the regulation of brain anandamide levels, we determined the effects of fluoxetine treatment on FAAH gene expression and FAAH activity. No changes were seen in Faah gene expression (t-tests: P>0.05; Figure 1e), or other eCB-synthesizing enzymes, Daglα,...
In this review, we consider the role of amygdala–PFC interactions in four broad classes of behavior, all of which are known to depend on the integrity of the amygdala: approach-avoidance learning, foraging, predator defense, and social signaling. In social animals, including nonhuman primates an...
