Table 2.
Mean ± SD percentage combined bilateral damage of targeted amygdala nuclei (bold) and adjacent amygdala nuclei. The minimum and maximum damage of targeted brain regions (i.e. region of interest; ROI) are shown in the Min ROI and Max ROI boxes; n refers to the number of lesioned animals included in the experiment. B, basal amygdala; CE, central amygdala; LA, lateral amygdala.
