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.

Prefrontal Cortex Activation and Young Driver Behaviour: A fNIRS Study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Road traffic accidents consistently show a significant over-representation for young, novice and particularly male drivers. This research examines the prefrontal cortex activation of young drivers and the changes in activation associated with ...

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 topology of connections between rat prefrontal, motor and sensory cortices

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2014
The connections of prefrontal cortex (PFC) were investigated in the rat brain to determine the order and location of input and output connections to motor and somatosensory cortex.

Perturbation of the right prefrontal cortex disrupts interference control

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2020
Resolving cognitive interference is central for successful everyday cognition and behavior. The Stroop task is a classical measure of cognitive interference.

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.

Striatum-Centered Fiber Connectivity Is Associated with the Personality Trait of Cooperativeness. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Cooperativeness is an essential behavioral trait evolved to facilitate group living. Social and cognitive mechanisms involved in cooperation (e.g., motivation, reward encoding, action evaluation, and executive functions) are sub-served by the striatal ...

Neuromodulation of Persistent Activity and Working Memory Circuitry in Primate Prefrontal Cortex by Muscarinic Receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021
Neuromodulation by acetylcholine plays a vital role in shaping the physiology and functions of cerebral cortex. Cholinergic neuromodulation influences brain-state transitions, controls the gating of cortical sensory stimulus responses, and has been shown

Impaired Oxygenation of the Prefrontal Cortex During Verbal Fluency Task in Young Adults With Major Depressive Disorder and Suicidality: A Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2022
BackgroundFew previous studies have focused on prefrontal activation in young adults diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) and suicidality via functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS).Materials and MethodsA total of 59 healthy controls (HCs)
