The central cholinergic system and muscarinic cholinergic receptor (mR) activation have long been associated with cognitive function. Although mR activation is no doubt involved in many aspects of cognitive functioning, the extensive evidence that memory is influenced by cholinergic treatments given after training either systemically or intra-cranially clearly indicates that cholinergic activat...
The hippocampus and amygdala are thought to be functionally distinct components of different learning and memory systems. This functional dissociation has been particularly apparent in pavlovian fear conditioning, where the integrity of the hippocampus is necessary for contextual conditioning, and of the amygdala for discrete cue conditioning. Their respective roles in appetitive conditioning, ...
Oscillatory activity in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) is critical for emotional behavior. In this issue of Neuron, Stujenske et al. (2014) describe novel dynamics of BLA theta-gamma-coupled neuronal oscillations associated with conditioned and innate fear.
We examined the influence of extensive overtraining (75 trials) on the impact of neurotoxic basolateral amygdala (BLA) lesions on Pavlovian fear conditioning in rats. As we have shown previously, pretraining BLA lesions yielded severe deficits in the acquisition of conditional freezing in rats trained with either 1 or 25 conditioning trials. However, extensive overtraining (50 or 75 trials) mit...
Normal aging has been associated with an increased propensity to wait for rewards. When this is tested experimentally, rewards are typically offered at increasing delays. In this setting, persistent responding for delayed rewards in aged rats could reflect either changes in the evaluation of delayed rewards or diminished learning, perhaps due to the loss of subcortical teaching signals induced ...
Small electrolytic lesions were placed in the basal and lateral amygdaloid nuclei of the dog and the distribution of degenerating fibers was studied with Nauta and Fink-Heimer modifications of the impregnation methods. Degenerating axons were followed into the hippocampal region and entorhinal cortex as well as insular and temporal cortices. The present results suggest that: (i) The hippocampal...
We examined the effects of discrete, bilateral excitotoxic lesions of the central or basolateral nucleus of the amygdala on naloxone-precipitated withdrawal-induced conditioned place aversion in morphine-dependent rats. Lesions of the central nucleus significantly attenuated the conditioned place aversion, while lesions of the basolateral nucleus had little effect. These results suggest that th...
Math anxiety is a negative emotional reaction that is characterized by feelings of stress and anxiety in situations involving mathematical problem solving. High math-anxious individuals tend to avoid situations involving mathematics and are less likely to pursue science, technology, engineering, and math-related careers than those with low math anxiety. Math anxiety during childhood, in particu...
Impaired cognitive flexibility after orbitofrontal damage has informed theories of orbitofrontal function and prefrontal cortex function generally. In this issue of Neuron, Stalnaker et al. demonstrate that reversal learning deficits after orbitofrontal damage in rats are eliminated by additional lesions of the basolateral amygdala. The involvement of orbitofrontal cortex in cognitive flexibili...
