A biphasic and brain-region selective down-regulation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate concentrations supports object recognition in the rat. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: We aimed to further understand the relationship between cAMP concentration and mnesic performance. METHODS AND FINDINGS: Rats were injected with milrinone (PDE3 inhibitor, 0.3 mg/kg, i.p.), rolipram (PDE4 inhibitor, 0.3 mg/kg, i.p.) and/or ...

Perirhinal cortex learns a predictive map of the task environment. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2023 ABSTRACT Goal-directed tasks involve acquiring an internal model, known as a predictive map, of relevant stimuli and associated outcomes to guide behavior. Here, we identified neural signatures of a predictive map of task behavior in perirhinal cortex (Prh). Mice learned to perform a tactile working memory task by classifying sequential

Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2015 To investigate the role of the perirhinal cortex on the development of recognition measured by the visual paired-comparison (VPC) task, infant monkeys with neonatal perirhinal lesions and sham-operated controls were tested at 1.5, 6, 18, and 48 months of

Model of Familiarity Discrimination in the Perirhinal Cortex
Journal of Computational Neuroscience, 2001 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 ...

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Recent research suggests that the medial temporal lobe (MTL) is involved in perception as well as in declarative memory. Amnesic patients with focal MTL lesions and semantic dementia patients showed perceptual deficits when discriminating faces and ...

Integrating Visual and Tactile Information in the Perirhinal Cortex [PDF]
Cerebral Cortex, 2009 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.

Homosexual women have less grey matter in perirhinal cortex than heterosexual women.
PLoS ONE, 2007 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.

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2016 The lateral prefrontal cortex is known for its contribution to working memory (WM) processes in both humans and animals. Yet, recent studies indicate that the prefrontal cortex is part of a broader network of interconnected brain areas involved in WM ...

Disambiguation of visual stimuli correlates with activity in bilateral medial temporal lobe structures [PDF]
Romanian Journal of Neurology, 2013 We are organisms adapted to recognize patterns around us in order to avoid ambiguity and indecision and there are inter-individual differences at this level.
