Perirhinal cortex and temporal lobe epilepsy [PDF]
The perirhinal cortex – which is interconnected with several limbic structures and is intimately involved in learning and memory - plays major roles in pathological processes such as the kindling phenomenon of epileptogenesis and the spread of limbic ...

Perirhinal cortex and the recognition of relative familiarity [PDF]
Spontaneous object recognition (SOR) is a widely used task of recognition memory in rodents which relies on their propensity to explore novel (or relatively novel) objects. Network models typically define perirhinal cortex as a region required for recognition of previously seen objects largely based on findings that lesions or inactivations of this ...

Integrating Visual and Tactile Information in the Perirhinal Cortex [PDF]
By virtue of its widespread afferent projections, perirhinal cortex is thought to bind polymodal information into abstract object-level representations. Consistent with this proposal, deficits in cross-modal integration have been reported after perirhinal lesions in nonhuman primates.

Anatomically, the perirhinal cortex sits at the boundary between the medial temporal lobe and the ventral visual pathway. It has prominent interconnections not only with both these systems, but also with a wide range of unimodal and polymodal association areas.

Model of Familiarity Discrimination in the Perirhinal Cortex
Much evidence indicates that recognition memory involves two separable processes, recollection and familiarity discrimination, with familiarity discrimination being dependent on the perirhinal cortex of the temporal lobe. Here, we describe a new neural network model designed to mimic the response patterns of perirhinal neurons that signal information ...

The human perirhinal cortex and semantic memory
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 ...

Declarative association in the perirhinal cortex
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

Propagation of Neocortical Inputs in the Perirhinal Cortex [PDF]
The perirhinal area is a rostrocaudally oriented strip of cortex in which lesions produce memory and perceptual impairments. It receives topographically organized transverse projections from associative neocortical areas and is endowed with intrinsic longitudinal connections that could distribute neocortical inputs in the rostrocaudal axis.

Medial temporal pathways for contextual learning: Network c- mapping in rats with or without perirhinal cortex lesions [PDF]
Background: In the rat brain, context information is thought to engage network interactions between the postrhinal cortex, medial entorhinal cortex, and the hippocampus.

Homosexual women have less grey matter in perirhinal cortex than heterosexual women.
Is sexual orientation associated with structural differences in the brain? To address this question, 80 homosexual and heterosexual men and women (16 homosexual men and 15 homosexual women) underwent structural MRI.
