Effects of frontal transcranial direct current stimulation on emotional processing and mood in healthy humans

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2012
The prefrontal cortex is involved in mood and emotional processing. In patients suffering from depression, the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is hypoactive, while activity of the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is enhanced.

Forebrain NR2B overexpression facilitating the prefrontal cortex long-term potentiation and enhancing working memory function in mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Prefrontal cortex plays an important role in working memory, attention regulation and behavioral inhibition. Its functions are associated with NMDA receptors.

Alcohol and the Prefrontal Cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The prefrontal cortex occupies the anterior portion of the frontal lobes and is thought to be one of the most complex anatomical and functional structures of the mammalian brain. Its major role is to integrate and interpret inputs from cortical and sub-cortical structures and use this information to develop purposeful responses that reflect both ...

Neuropsychology of prefrontal cortex

open access: yesIndian Journal of Psychiatry, 2008
The history of clinical frontal lobe study is long and rich which provides valuable insights into neuropsychologic determinants of functions of prefrontal cortex (PFC). PFC is often classified as multimodal association cortex as extremely processed information from various sensory modalities is integrated here in a precise fashion to form the ...

Hyperconnectivity of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex in obsessive-compulsive disorder

open access: yesBrain and Neuroscience Advances, 2018
Neuroimaging research has highlighted maladaptive thalamo-cortico-striatal interactions in obsessive-compulsive disorder as well as a more general deficit in prefrontal functioning linked with compromised executive functioning.

Anterior Prefrontal Contributions to Implicit Attention Control

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2012
Prefrontal cortex function has traditionally been associated with explicit executive function. Recently, however, evidence has been presented that lateral prefrontal cortex is also involved in high-level cognitive processes such as task set selection or ...

THE PREFRONTAL CORTEX. [PDF]

open access: yesBrain, 1999
By Joaquin M. Fuster. 1997. Pp. 352. Philadelphia: Lippincott-Raven.Price £60. ISBN 0-397-51849-8. In the first edition of The Prefrontal Cortex the author set out his hypothesis concerning the functions of the prefrontal association cortex. These are conceived as being not modality specific but as integrative in nature, orchestrating the \`sensory ...
