Analysis of morphometric parameters in the nuclei of the anterior amygdala complex account with gender specific

Abstract

The brain sexual dimorphism indicates the morphological differences between individuals. Amygdala complex (MK) of the brain is one of the areas of sexual dimorphism. Bilateral relations of the MK with the hypothalamus ensure its participation in the processes of puberty and the regulation of the gonads, that allows considering this area as a link in the reproductive system of the organism is located on its territory neuroendocrine centers, which is able to regulate the secretion of gonadotropins and sexual behavior. On the territory of the anterior part of the MK zone of sexual dimorphism presented by the front amygdalar area (AAA), front cortical (COA) and Central (CE) nuclei, having the ability to regulate the secretion of gonadotropins and sexual behavior.
