The human perirhinal cortex and semantic memory

European Journal of Neuroscience, 2004
AbstractStudies in macaque monkeys indicate that the perirhinal cortex in the temporal lobe participates in object memory. This function may be analogous to aspects of human semantic memory (knowledge of objects, concepts, faces and words). To date, the status of perirhinal cortex has not specifically been investigated in patients with semantic ...

Afferent connections of the perirhinal cortex in the rat

Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1983
AbstractConnections of the perirhinal cortex in the.rat brain were studied using anterograde (3H‐proline/leucine) and retrograde (horseradish peroxidase) tracers. The perirhinal cortex receives major projections from medial precen‐tral, anterior cingulate, prelimbic, ventral lateral orbital, ventral and posterior agranular insular, temporal, superior ...

Perirhinal cortex involvement in limbic kindled seizures

Epilepsy Research, 1996
Investigations into the anatomical substrate of temporal lobe epilepsy have yielded a number of important observations regarding the involvement of the piriform and perirhinal cortical areas in temporal lobe seizure propagation. Although early reports indirectly suggested that the circuits of the piriform cortex might act as a critical conduit for ...

Declarative association in the perirhinal cortex

Neuroscience Research, 2016
Declarative memories are our so-called daily language memories, which we are able to describe or explicitly experience through the act of remembering. This conscious recollection makes it possible for us to think about the future based on our previous experience (episodic memory) and knowledge (semantic memory). This cognitive function is substantiated

The human perirhinal cortex and recognition memory

Hippocampus, 1998
The importance of the perirhinal cortex for visual recognition memory performance is undisputed. However, it has not been clear whether its contribution to performance is mainly perceptual, or mainly mnemonic, or whether the perirhinal cortex contributes to both perception and memory.

Projection from the perirhinal cortex to the frontal motor cortex in the rat

Brain Research, 2002
Stimulation of the anterior perirhinal cortex (PERa) induced marked surface-negative and depth-positive field potentials in the rat frontal motor cortex (MC) including the rostral and caudal forelimb areas. Injection of biotinylated dextran into the PERa densely labeled axon terminals in the superficial layers of the MC, where vigorous unit responses ...

The anatomy, physiology and functions of the perirhinal cortex

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1996
The perirhinal cortex is a polymodal association area that contributes importantly to normal recognition memory. A convergence of recent findings from lesion and electrophysiological studies has provided new evidence that this area participates in an even broader range of memory functions than previously thought, including associative memory and ...

Kindling of claustrum and insular cortex: comparison to perirhinal cortex in the rat

European Journal of Neuroscience, 2001
AbstractThe perirhinal cortex has recently been implicated in the kindling of limbic generalized seizures. The following experiments in rats tested the selectivity of the perirhinal cortex's epileptogenic properties by comparing its kindling profile with those of the adjacent insular cortex, posterior (dorsolateral) claustrum and amygdala.

[The human perirhinal cortex].

Revue neurologique, 2004
The perirhinal cortex is a structure that lies within the medial temporal lobe. In the present paper, we review current knowledge of the anatomical boundaries and functional correlates of this structure. In the past decade, numerous animal studies have attempted to understand the contribution of the perirhinal cortex to memory.

Perirhinal cortex lesions delay ejaculation in rats

Behavioural Brain Research, 2008
Afferents from the perirhinal cortex (PRh) form a major input to the hippocampal formation, which is known to be involved in sexual behavior in rodents. But there is a lacuna in literature regarding the role of the PRh in sexual behavior. Bilateral neurotoxic lesions of the PRh delayed the ejaculation latency and prolonged the mean inter-intromission ...
