Inverted-U relationship between the level of peripheral corticosterone and the magnitude of hippocampal primed burst potentiation.

TL;DR: Findings provide strong support for the hypothesis that corticosterone exerts a concentration‐dependent biphasic influence on the expression of hippocampal plasticity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Corticosteroids in relation to fear, anxiety and psychopathology.

TL;DR: The present review shows that different aspects of fear and anxiety are affected differentially by the occupation of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) or glucoc Corticosteroids (GR) at different phases of the stress response.

Adrenal Steroids and Behavioral Adaptation: Relationship to Brain Corticoid Receptors

TL;DR: The past and present State of research are described, the view of the future of corticosteroid-brain interactions in understanding the endocrine modulation of behavioral adaptation is provided, and concepts which stemmed from this research led to theendocrine view of brain function and dysfunction held today are described.

The neurochemistry and pharmacology of extinction behavior.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the noradrenergic system may be involved in the expression of extinction behavior by a role in selective attention, the dopamine system via an involvement with secondary reinforcement, the cholinergic system by a mechanism of response inhibition and the barbiturates and benzodiazepines by a block of nonreward.

On the mechanism of activation of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal reaction to changes in the environment (the ‘alarm reaction’)

H. Laborit
- 01 Jan 1976 - 
TL;DR: It seems that the early release of ACTH after aggression is capable of favouring locomotor activity in 'flight or fight', and if the latter is effective, there is a return to the previous behavioural and endocrine balance, while if ' flight or fight' should be ineffective, there arises a vicious circle with positive retroaction.
