The basal ganglia

WIREs Cognitive Science, 2012
AbstractThrough its connections with widespread cortical areas and with dopaminergic midbrain areas, the basal ganglia are well situated to integrate patterns of cortical input with the dopaminergic reward signal originating in the midbrain. In this review, we consider the functions of the basal ganglia in relation to its gross and cellular anatomy ...

The neuropsychology of basal ganglia

European Journal of Paediatric Neurology, 2018
Basal ganglia are subcortical structures specialized at very early age, functionally different according to the right or left side. They are part of complex distributed network composed by parallel segregated loops where specific information are processed and open loops where different information are integrated.

Apathy and the basal ganglia

Journal of Neurology, 2006
We should like to emphasize the following points: 1. Apathy is defined here as a quantified and observable behavioral syndrome consisting in a quantitative reduction of voluntary (or goal-directed) behaviors; 2. Therefore, apathy occurs when the systems that generate and control voluntary actions are altered; 3.

AGING AND THE BASAL GANGLIA

Neurologic Clinics, 1998
Age-related changes within the basal ganglia primarily affect the dopaminergic nigrostriatal pathway and related pigmented nuclei. These alterations resemble the pathologic changes of Parkinson's disease, but cell dropout is not as marked or uniquely selective in the aged brain.
