The Piriform Cortex and Human Focal Epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2014
It is surprising that the piriform cortex, when compared to the hippocampus, has been given relatively little significance in human epilepsy. Like the hippocampus, it has a phylogenetically preserved three-layered cortex that is vulnerable to excitotoxic

Rhythmic spontaneous activity in the piriform cortex [PDF]

open access: yesCerebral Cortex, 2007
Descalzo and Reig have contributed equally to this work Slow spontaneous rhythmic activity is generated and propagates in neocortical slices when bathed in an artificial cerebrospinal fluid with ionic concentrations similar to the ones in vivo.

Inhibitory Interneurons in the Piriform Cortex

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 2015
1. The piriform cortex (PC) is the largest subdivision of the olfactory cortex and the first cortical destination of olfactory information. Despite the relatively simple anatomy of the PC and its obvious appeal as a model system for the study of ...

Mixture Coding and Segmentation in the Anterior Piriform Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2020
Coding of odorous stimuli has been mostly studied using single isolated stimuli. However, a single sniff of air in a natural environment is likely to introduce airborne chemicals emitted by multiple objects into the nose.

Neurons and circuits for odor processing in the piriform cortex [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Neurosciences, 2013
Increased understanding of the early stages of olfaction has lead to a renewed interest in the higher brain regions responsible for forming unified ‘odor images’ from the chemical components detected by the nose.

Occurrence of new neurons in the piriform cortex [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015
Adult neurogenesis has been well studied in hippocampus and subventricular zone; while this is much less appreciated in other brain regions, including amygdala, hypothalamus and piriform cortex.

Odor fear conditioning modifies piriform cortex local field potentials both during conditioning and during post-conditioning sleep. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BackgroundSleep plays an active role in memory consolidation. Sleep structure (REM/Slow wave activity [SWS]) can be modified after learning, and in some cortical circuits, sleep is associated with replay of the learned experience.

Binaral Interactions in the Rat Piriform Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurophysiology, 1997
Wilson, Donald A. Binaral interactions in the rat piriform cortex. J. Neurophysiol. 78: 160–169, 1997. Single-unit recordings were made from layer II/III anterior piriform cortex (aPCX) neurons in adult Wistar rats to examine odor response patterns to ...

Preprocessing of emotional visual information in the human piriform cortex

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
This study examines the processing of visual information by the olfactory system in humans. Recent data point to the processing of visual stimuli by the piriform cortex, a region mainly known as part of the primary olfactory cortex.

Intracortical Excitation Rules in Piriform Cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The cerebral cortex continuously encodes new sensory information and organizes it within an experiential intracortical framework. The cortical integration of internal and external information forms the associations that are the basis for higher order ...
