Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have identified a brain circuit linked to anxiety that may provide a new drug target, ...

Scientists have pinpointed a brain circuit that, when activated, reduces anxiety without impairing memory. Using ...

However, the genes that govern connectivity between the amygdala and the prefrontal cortex have ... claustrum, insula and piriform cortex. The basolateral amygdala contains a range of cell types ...

These include parts of the prefrontal cortex (important for ... and an area that receives input from the amygdala (the insular cortex), has been found in a number of anxiety disorders.

amygdala and insula in an inverted U-shaped manner. Functional connectivity between the putamen and the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) correlated positively with BMI, whereas that of ...

This area of the brain links the prefrontal cortex with the limbic system and is involved in top-down processes such as control of attention. Another key area affected is the insula, which plays a ...
