Electrolytic lesion of the nucleus incertus retards extinction of auditory conditioned fear
(Elsevier, 2013-06-15)
Fear memory circuits in the brain function to allow animals and humans to recognize putative sources of danger and adopt an appropriate behavioral response; and research on animal models of fear have helped reveal the ...
Striato-amygdaloid transition area lesions reduce the duration of tonic immobility in the lizard Podarcis hispanica
(Elsevier, 2002)
Neuroanatomical data suggest that the lizard striato-amygdaloid transition area is homologous with the mammalian central amygdala. In order to investigate possible functional similarities, tonic immobility was induced in ...
The African striped mouse Lemniscomys barbarus as a model for aggression. Brain areas activated by agonistic encounters
(Spanish Society of Anatomy, 2017-01)
During agonistic behavior several brain areas became differentially activated depending on the role the subject is taking. Several areas are mostly activated during the offender role and several others are activated if the ...
Afferent and Efferent Connections of the Cortex-Amygdala Transition Zone in Mice
(Frontiers Media, 2016)
The transitional zone between the ventral part of the piriform cortex and the anterior cortical nucleus of the amygdala, named the cortex-amygdala transition zone (CxA), shows two differential features that allow its ...
Distribution of oxytocin and co-localization with arginine vasopressin in the brain of mice
(Springer Verlag, 2015-09-20)
Oxytocin (OT) and vasopressin (AVP) play a major role in social behaviours. Mice have become the species of choice for neurobiology of social behaviour due to identification of mouse pheromones and the advantage of genetically ...
Extending the socio-sexual brain: arginine-vasopressin immunoreactive circuits in the telencephalon of mice
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2014-05)
Quantitative analysis of the immunoreactivity for arginine-vasopressin (AVP-ir) in the telencephalon of male (intact and castrated) and female CD1 mice allows us to precisely locate two sexually dimorphic (more abundant ...
Vomeronasal inputs to the rodent ventral striatum
(Elsevier, 2008-03)
Vertebrates sense chemical signals through the olfactory and vomeronasal systems. In squamate reptiles, which possess the largest vomeronasal system of all vertebrates, the accessory olfactory bulb projects to the nucleus ...
