One long-standing idea is that the amygdala consists of an evolutionarily primitive division associated with the olfactory system (cortical, medial and central nuclei) and an evolutionarily newer division associated with the neocortex (lateral, basal, and accessory basal nuclei).tructural and/or functional changes in the amygdala are associated with a wide variety of psychiatric conditions in humans. Included are various anxiety disorders (PTSD, phobia, and panic), depression, schizophrenia, and autism, to name a few.
Human emotion and memory: interactions of the amygdalaand hippocampal complex Elizabeth A Phelps The amygdala and hippocampal complex, two medialtemporal lobe structures, are linked to two independentmemory systems, each with unique characteristic functions.peciï¬cally, the amygdala can modulateboth the encoding and the storage of hippocampal-dependentmemories. The hippocampal complex, by forming episodicrepresentations of the emotional signiï¬cance and interpretationof events, can inï¬uence the amygdala response whenemotional stimuli are encountered.
