The bed nucleus of the stria terminalis is critically involved in enhancing associative learning after stressful experience.
Exposure to an acute stressful event enhances trace eyeblink conditioning in male rats, even when rats begin training days after the stressor (Shors, 2001). The authors examined whether the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST), an area involved in stress and anxiety, is critically involved in this effect and, if so, when. The authors found that excitotoxic lesions to the BNST prevented th...
متن کاملRole of GABAA receptors of bed nucleus stria terminalis in controlling of blood pressure and heart rate in rats
Introduction: The Bed nucleus stria terminalis (BST) is a part of the limbic system. It was recently shown that chemical stimulation of the BST by L-glutamate elicited cardiovascular depressive responses. In the present study, we have investigated the possible cardiovascular role of the GABAergic receptors in BST by microinjection of its agonist and antagonists. Methods: Experiments were p...
متن کاملMechanisms in the Bed Nucleus of the Stria Terminalis Involved in Control of Autonomic and Neuroendocrine Functions: A Review
The bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) is a heterogeneous and complex limbic forebrain structure, which plays an important role in controlling autonomic, neuroendocrine and behavioral responses. The BNST is thought to serve as a key relay connecting limbic forebrain structures to hypothalamic and brainstem regions associated with autonomic and neuroendocrine functions. Its control of ph...
متن کاملAllopregnanolone in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis modulates contextual fear in rats
Trauma- and stress-related disorders are among the most common types of mental illness affecting the U.S. population. For many of these disorders, there is a striking sex difference in lifetime prevalence; for instance, women are twice as likely as men to be affected by posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Gonadal steroids and their metabolites have been implicated in sex differences in fear a...
متن کاملA transcriptomic analysis of type I-III neurons in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis.
The activity of neurons in the anterolateral cell group of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST(ALG)) plays a critical role in anxiety- and stress-related behaviors. Histochemical studies have suggested that multiple distinct neuronal phenotypes exist in the BNST(ALG). Consistent with this observation, the physiological properties of BNST(ALG) neurons are also heterogeneous, and three ...
