Framing effect following bilateral amygdala lesion
A paradigmatic example of an emotional bias in decision making is the framing effect, where the manner in which a choice is posed--as a potential loss or a potential gain--systematically biases an ensuing decision. Two fMRI studies have shown that the activation in the amygdala is modulated by the framing effect. Here, contrary to an expectation based on these studies, we show that two patients...
متن کاملThe effect of amygdala lesion on anterior claustrum kindled seizures in rats
Introduction: The claustrum interconnects with the allocortical and neocortical regions and also projects to the hippocampus and the amygdala. .The role of claustrum in the complex partial seizure is not clear. Thus in this study the effect of amygdala lesion on anterior claustrum kindled seizures in rat were investigated. Methods: Male Wistar rats, weighting 250-300 g, were received DC curren...
متن کاملEmotionality and exploratory behavior following cortico-basomedial amygdala lesion in rat.
Twelve rats with amygdaloid lesion (CBM group) and 20 sham operated (Control group) were tested. Emotional reactivity evaluated by six category scale showed transient decrease in CBM group with respect to Control one. The CBM lesion enhanced the locomotor activity in electromagnetic activity meter in the initial phase of confinement in the apparatus. Open-field ambulation was higher in CBM rats...
متن کاملIncreased sweet taste preference following the lesion of basolateral nucleus of amygdala (BLA) in rat.
A study of gustatory preference was carried out in Wistar strain albino rats by electrolytically lesioning the basolateral nucleus of amygdala. The intake of sweet tasting saccharin (Sn-0.1% soln w/v), NaCl solutions (1% Soln w/v) and tap water, were tested in single bottle, 2 bottle choice and 3 bottle choice situations. The consumption of fluids both before and after the stereotaxic surgery w...
متن کاملReduced 5-HT(2A) receptor signaling following selective bilateral amygdala damage.
Neurobiological evidence implicates the amygdala as well as serotonergic (serotonin, 5-HT) signaling via postsynaptic 5-HT(2A) receptors as essential substrates of anxiety behaviors. Assuming a functional interdependence of these substrates, we hypothesized that a low-fear behavioral phenotype due to bilateral lesion of the amygdala would be associated with significant 5-HT(2A) receptor changes...
