Functions of delay-period activity in the prefrontal cortex and mnemonic scotomas revisited

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2015
Working memory is one of key concepts to understand functions of the prefrontal cortex. Delay-period activity is an important neural correlate to understand the role of working memory in prefrontal functions.

The role of prefrontal cortex in psychopathy [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in the Neurosciences, 2012
Psychopathy is a personality disorder characterized by remorseless and impulsive antisocial behavior. Given the significant societal costs of the recidivistic criminal acti\xadvity associated with the disorder, there is a pressing need for more effective treatment strategies and, hence, a better understanding of the psychobiological mechanisms ...

Human Brain Cell‐Type‐Specific Aging Clocks Based on Single‐Nuclei Transcriptomics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Muralidharan and colleagues develop cell‐type‐specific transcriptomic aging clocks using single‐nucleus RNA sequencing of human post mortem prefrontal cortex samples. These clocks accurately predict age and identify distinct aging trajectories in specific brain cell types.

Benefit of the doubt: a new view of the role of the prefrontal cortex in executive functioning and decision making

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2013
The False Tagging Theory (FTT) is a neuroanatomical model of belief and doubt processes that proposes a single, unique function for the prefrontal cortex.

Prefrontal Activity Links Nonoverlapping Events in Memory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) plays an important role in memory. By maintaining a working memory buffer, neurons in prelimbic (PL) mPFC may selectively contribute to learning associations between stimuli that are separated in time, as in trace fear

Dynamic Neural Deactivation Bridges Direct and Competitive Inhibition Processes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Dynamic neural deactivation bridges traditionally distinct inhibitory mechanisms—direct inhibition and competition‐induced inhibition—revealing a common neural signature across modalities. Multimodal neuroimaging and behavioral experiments demonstrate a temporal dynamic characterized by progressive frontoparietal activation decay and enhanced sensory ...

Space representation in the prefrontal cortex [PDF]

open access: yesProgress in Neurobiology, 2013
The representation of space and its function in the prefrontal cortex have been examined using a variety of behavioral tasks. Among them, since the delayed-response task requires the temporary maintenance of spatial information, this task has been used to examine the mechanisms of spatial representation.

Integration of Genetic and Imaging Data for Alzheimer's Disease Diagnosis and Interpretation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
AlzCLIP is a novel contrastive learning framework that integrates single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) profiles and MRI‐derived imaging features into a unified representation space to improve Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis and interpretation. By achieving superior diagnostic accuracy and revealing key genetic and structural contributors to AD risk,

Hyper-connectivity and hyper-plasticity in the medial prefrontal cortex in the valproic acid animal model of autism

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2008
The prefrontal cortex has been extensively implicated in autism to explain deficits in executive and other higher-order functions related to cognition, language, sociability and emotion.

Capacity and tendency: A neuroscientific framework for the study of emotion regulation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
It is widely accepted that the ability to effectively regulate one's emotions is a cornerstone of physical and mental health. As such, it should come as no surprise that the number of neuroimaging studies focused on emotion regulation and associated ...
