Unconscious amygdalar fear conditioning in a subset of chronic fatigue syndrome patients.
Here, a novel hypothesis for chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is proposed. CFS may be a neurophysiological disorder focussing on the amygdala. During a 'traumatic' neurological event often involving acute psychological stress combined with a viral infection or other chemical or physiological stressor, a conditioned network or 'cell assembly' may be created in the amygdala. The unconscious amygdal...
متن کاملUnconscious conditioning: Demonstration of existence and difference from conscious conditioning.
Unpronounceable strings of 4 consonants (conditioned stimuli: CSs) were consistently followed by familiar words belonging to 1 of 2 opposed semantic categories (unconditioned stimuli: USs). Conditioning, in the form of greater accuracy in rapidly classifying USs into their categories, was found when visually imperceptible (to most subjects) CSs occupied ≥58 ms of a 75-ms CS-US interval. When cl...

During mindfulness-based interventions participants can be invited to bring aversive stimuli to mind while practicing mindfulness. This is thought to help the stimuli become less aversive. However, the mechanisms underlying this process are not fully understood. In this study we explored these by examining the effects of mindfulness practice and stimulus visualization on stimuli associated with...
متن کاملBrief fear preexposure facilitates subsequent fear conditioning.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder that occurs following an unexpected exposure to a severe psychological event. A history of a brief trauma is reported to affect a risk for future PTSD development; however, little is known about the mechanisms by which a previous trauma exposure drives the sensitivity to a late-coming trauma. Using a mouse PTSD model, we found that a ...
متن کاملContextual fear conditioning in zebrafish.
Zebrafish are a genetically tractable vertebrate that hold considerable promise for elucidating the molecular basis of behavior. Although numerous recent advances have been made in the ability to precisely manipulate the zebrafish genome, much less is known about many aspects of learning and memory in adult fish. Here, we describe the development of a contextual fear conditioning paradigm using...
