Medial perirhinal cortex disambiguates confusable objects [PDF]

open access: yesBrain, 2012
Our brain disambiguates the objects in our cluttered visual world seemingly effortlessly, enabling us to understand their significance and to act appropriately. The role of anteromedial temporal structures in this process, particularly the perirhinal cortex, is highly controversial.

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.

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 ...

Perceptual–mnemonic functions of the perirhinal cortex

Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 1999
It is widely acknowledged that the perirhinal cortex, located in the ventromedial aspect of the temporal lobe, is essential for certain types of memory in macaque monkeys. For example, removal of the perirhinal cortex yields severe impairments on tests of stimulus recognition and stimulus-stimulus association.

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 ...

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.

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 ...

Computational models of perirhinal cortex function

Hippocampus, 2012
AbstractI review seven models of the contribution of perirhinal cortex (PRC) or neighboring neocortical regions to cognition. Five of the models address recognition memory function (Sohal and Hasselmo (2000) Network 11:169‐190; Bogacz et al. (2001) J Comput Neurosci 10:5‐23; Bogacz and Brown (2003a) Neurocomputing 52:1‐6; Norman and O'Reilly (2003 ...

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 ...

[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.
