Do you know brain gathers threat cues and turns them into fear? Study reveals

21-Aug-2022
Washington [US], August 21 (ANI): Salk Institute researchers have found that a biochemical pathway that combines potentially dangerous sights, sounds, and odours into a single message: Be afraid. CGRP is a protein that permits neurons in two distinct sections of the brain to combine dangerous sensory signals into a coherent signal, label it as negative, and transmit it to the amygdala, where it is converted into fear.
