Effects of lesions of amygdaloid nuclei and substantia nigra on aversive responses induced by electrical stimulation of the inferior colliculus

Stimulation of the central nucleus of the inferior colliculus causes defensive behavior. In this work we examined the influence of lesions of brain structures involved in the expression of fear, such as periaqueductal gray matter, amygdala, and substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNpr), on these avers...
