Extralimbic mediation of emotionality and social cohesiveness effects

Physiology & Behavior
L J Enloe

Abstract

Long-Evans hooded rats were tested for emotionality and observed by pairs in an open field for 6 consecutive days. Postoperative observations indicated that both emotionality and social cohesiveness were dramatically altered by ventromedial and anterolateral hypothalamic lesions. Tegmental, interpeduncular and habenular lesions were shown to have no effect on these behaviors. Alterations in behavior observed following hypothalamic ablations were related to septal and amygdaloid effects, and the possibility of separate projection systems for emotionality and social cohesiveness was discussed.

Amygdala: Sensory Processes

Amygdalae, nuclei clusters located in the temporal lobe of the brain, play a role in memory, emotional responses, and decision-making. Here is the latest research on sensory processes in the amygdala.

Amygdala and Midbrain Dopamine

The midbrain dopamine system is widely studied for its involvement in emotional and motivational behavior. Some of these neurons receive information from the amygdala and project throughout the cortex. When the circuit and transmission of dopamine is disrupted symptoms may present. Here is the latest research on the amygdala and midbrain dopamine.
