For instance, the AT2 receptor has been found at high levels in the medulla oblongata (control of autonomous functions), septum and amygdala (associated with anxiety-like behavior), thalamus (sensory perception), and superior colliculus (control of eye movements in response to visual information) as well as in the subthalamic nucleus and cerebellum (areas associated with learning of motor functions). This evidence concerns the gene AGTR2 and Anxiety.
