Numerous studies have suggested that the amygdala is involved in the formation of aversive
memories, but the possibility that this structure is merely related to any kind of fear sensation …

Previous findings indicate that the basolateral amygdala complex of nuclei (BLC) is involved
in modulating (ie, enhancing or impairing) memory consolidation for aversive training such …

Evidence from previous studies indicates that the noradrenergic and GABAergic influences
within the basolateral amygdala (BLA) modulate the consolidation of memory for fear …

Rats were trained in an 8-arm radial maze on a task in which memory for magnitude of
reinforcement was tested. Rats received a single trial per day consisting of a study phase …

Whether you are a rat or a rabbit or a mouse or a monkey, your brain is constantly learning.
Indeed, one could argue that this is one of the primary purposes of the nervous system: to …

There is extensive evidence that several neurotransmitter systems within the basolateral
amygdala (BLA) influence memory consolidation. The present study investigated the …

Fear conditioning is accepted as a useful experimental paradigm to investigate anxious
disorders following stress. In this field it is important to understand the mechanisms …

The present study investigated possible lateralization of amygdala involvement in memory
for aversively motivated training. Rats with bilateral cannulae aimed at the amygdalae were …

Optimal levels of anxiety are critical to memory consolidation, but maladaptive anxiety can
disrupt memory acquisition. Serotonergic activity within the amygdala influences both …

Previous studies have reported that drugs affecting neuromodulatory systems within the
basolateral amygdala (BLA), including drugs affecting muscarinic cholinergic receptors …
