- Biology, PsychologyNeurobiology of Learning and Memory

The hypothesis is proposed that these apparently dual effects of glucocorticoids on memory consolidation and memory retrieval might be related and that the basolateral complex of the amygdala is a key structure in a memory-modulatory system that regulates, in concert with other brain regions, stress and glucOCorticoid effects on both memory consolidationand memory retrieval.

The results strongly suggest that beta-adrenergic activation is an essential step in mediating glucocorticoid effects on memory storage and that the BLA is a locus of interaction for these two systems.

Findings provide strong evidence supporting the hypothesis that the amygdala is involved in modulating long-term memory storage, as well as supporting the central hypothesis guiding the research reviewed in this paper.

It is reported here that propranolol significantly impaired memory of the emotionally arousing story but did not affect memory ofThe emotionally neutral story, which supports the hypothesis that enhanced memory associated with emotional experiences involves activation of the beta-adrenergic system.

The results support the view that memory of a mild emotional event involves activation of central, but not necessarily peripheral β-adrenergic receptors, while propranolol impaired memory in subjects who saw the emotional version of the slide show.

It is indicated that an intact amygdala is necessary for the expression of the modulatory effects of stress on hippocampal LTP and memory.
