The contribution of ventrolateral and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex to response reversal [PDF]
Behavioural Brain Research, 2008 Studies investigating response reversal consistently implicate regions of medial and lateral prefrontal cortex when reinforcement contingencies change. However, it is unclear from these studies how these regions give rise to the individual components of response reversal, such as reinforcement value encoding, response inhibition, and response change ...

Effects of rTMS conditioning over the fronto-parietal network on motor versus visual attention [PDF]
, 2007 Many studies have shown that visuospatial orienting attention depends on a network of frontal and parietal areas in the right hemisphere. Rushworth et al. [Rushworth, M. F., Krams, M., & Passingham, R. E. The attentional role of the left parietal cortex:

Physiological Dysfunction of the Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex in Schizophrenia Revisited [PDF]
Cerebral Cortex, 2000 Evidence implicates subtle neuronal pathology of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) in schizophrenia, but how this pathology is reflected in physiological neuroimaging experiments remains controversial. We investigated PFC function in schizophrenia using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and a parametric version of the n-back working memory (WM ...

Prefrontal cortex contributions to controlled memory judgment : fMRI evidence from adolescents and young adults [PDF]
, 2012 Cortical regions supporting cognitive control and memory judgment are structurally immature in adolescents. Here we studied adolescents (13-15 y.o.) and young adults (20-22 y.o.) using a recognition memory paradigm that modulates cognitive control ...

Encoding of Rules by Neurons in the Human Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex [PDF]
Cerebral Cortex, 2012 We use rules to extend learned behavior beyond specific instances to general scenarios. The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is thought to play an important role in representing rules, as evidenced by subjects who have difficulty in following rules after PFC damage and by animal studies demonstrating rule sensitivity of individual PFC neurons.

Methamphetamine-Triggered Neurotoxicity in Human Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex
Galen Medical Journal, 2021 Background: Methamphetamine (MA), is an extremely addictive stimulant that adversely affects the central nervous system. Accumulating evidence indicates that molecular mechanisms such as oxidative stress, apoptosis, and autophagy are involved in the toxicity of MA.

Prefrontal involvement in imitation learning of hand actions : effects of practice and expertise. [PDF]
, 2007 In this event-related fMRI study, we demonstrate the effects of a single session of practising configural hand actions (guitar chords) on cortical activations during observation, motor preparation, and imitative execution.
