The central and basolateral amygdala differentially mediate the anxiolytic effects of benzodiazepines.

Abstract:

:Microinfusions of the benzodiazepine anxiolytic midazolam into the central or basolateral amygdaloid nuclei produced different anxiolytic effects in two tests of rat 'anxiety'. Infusions into the basolateral nucleus impaired open-arm avoidance in the elevated plus-maze test, but did not impair shock-probe avoidance in the shock-probe burying test. In contrast, infusions into the central nucleus impaired shock-probe avoidance, but did not impair open-arm avoidance. Both of these site-specific, midazolam-induced anxiolytic effects were blocked by a pre-infusion of the benzodiazepine receptor antagonist Ro 15-1788 (flumazenil). None of the treatments affected defensive burying. These results suggest that benzodiazepine receptors in the central and basolateral amygdaloid nuclei differentially mediate the anti-anxiety effects of benzodiazepine anxiolytics.
