Abstract: | "In this review contains the systematized data available in modern literature, which characterize the basolateral nucleus of the amygdala as one of the sexual dimorphism zones (SDZ) and its relationship with other reproductive centers of the amygdala. The basolateral nucleus, as the structure of the phylogenetically new part of the amygdala--receives the major amount of the pheromone and olfactory information through phylogenetically old--corticomedial division of the amygdala. Integrating it with the sensory signals of different modality, coming from the thalamus and cortical formations, the basolateral nucleus, together with the SDZ of corticomedial division, participates in the organization of sexual behavior and regulation of gonadotropin secretion. Sexual dimorphism of the basolateral nucleus, which is involved in the functional system of emotion formation and memory mechanisms, determines sex-dependent features of their behavioral manifestations, especially in stress reactions" |
