Researchers at IN-CSIC/UMH in Spain corrected a single gene’s expression in one population of amygdala neurons in adult mice ...
A groundbreaking study revealed that rebalancing a single neural circuit in the amygdala can potentially reverse anxiety and ...
Researchers reversed anxiety, depression-like behavior, and social withdrawal in mice by correcting the dosage of a single ...
The basolateral amygdala (BLA) is a region of the brain that has been almost exclusively studied in the context of fear and emotion. Only recently have researchers begun to question whether the BLA ...
A newly identified group of amygdala neurons appears to play a central role in anxiety and social behavior. Restoring normal ...
The basolateral amygdala (BLA) is one site of information storage important for forming conditioned fear responses to previously neutral stimuli by pairing them with aversive stimuli. Researchers have ...
In moral-dilemma tests, people with damage to a brain region called the basolateral amygdala seldom chose to sacrifice one person even if it would save the lives of thousands of others. A small, ...
The basolateral amygdala, an almond-shaped structure inside the brain, is responsible for fear- and reward-based learning. Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Professor Bo Li and his postdoc Xian Zhang ...
People with a rare genetic disorder that damages the amygdala are helping neuroscientists rethink how the brain shapes fear, trust and concern for others ...
