Amygdala-frontal connectivity during emotion regulation. (2007, background): “Anatomical tracing studies have demonstrated strong reciprocal connections between the amygdala and the ACC, OFC, VLPFC and DMPFC (Amaral and Price, 1984; Ghashghaei and Barbas, 2002; Ghashghaei et al., 2007).”
The neurobiology of aggression and violence (2015, background): “This has been considered to signify that the ACC is more of a sender of amygdala-PFC projections, whereas, the pOFC is more of a receiver.(49,50) (b) These structural data in primates are”
The Integration of Negative Affect, Pain, and Cognitive Control in the Cingulate Cortex (2011, background): “Robust reciprocal connections have also been found between aMCC and the lateral basal nucleus of the amygdal”
The theory of constructed emotion: an active inference account of interoception and categorization (2017, positive): “, in press), including the central nucleus of the amygdala (Ghashghaei et al., 2007), the ventral and dorsal striatum, and the central pattern generators (Swanson, 2012) across hypothalamus, the parabrachial nucleus, periaqueductal grey, and the solitary nucleus (see Figure 5A and B).”
Childhood Adversity and Neural Development: A Systematic Review (2019, background): “…ventromedial PFC (vmPFC) and subgenual (sgACC), pregenual (pgACC) (sometimes referred to as rostral ACC), and dorsal (dACC) regions of anterior cingulate cortex (Dixon et al. 2017, Ghashghaei et al. 2007, Kim et al. 2011); we review the dACC separately in the section below titled Salience Network.”
The structural and functional connectivity of the amygdala: From normal emotion to pathological anxiety (2011, background): “This process is supported by the existence of amygdala–mPFC connectivity that allows direct, reciprocal communication [14,19,56].”
Dissecting the uncinate fasciculus: disorders, controversies and a hypothesis. (2013, background): “Using radioactive tracers, Ghashghaei and Barbas (2002) and Ghashghaei et al. (2007) detected substantial projections from the caudal orbital frontal cortex and from BA 36 of the anterior temporal lobe to the basolateral and basomedial nuclei of the amygdala; projections from both regions…”
