Distinct Roles of the Prefrontal and Posterior Parietal Cortices in Response Inhibition

Cell Reports, 2016
The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and posterior parietal cortex have been implicated in the planning of movements and inhibition of inappropriate responses, though their precise roles in these functions are not known.

Schizophrenia and reelin: a model based on prenatal stress to study epigenetics, brain development and behavior

Biological Research
Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric disorder that results in a significant disability for the patient. The disorder is characterized by impairment of the adaptive orchestration of actions, a cognitive function that is mainly dependent on the prefrontal

Medial prefrontal and anterior insular connectivity in early schizophrenia and major depressive disorder: a resting functional MRI evaluation of large-scale brain network models

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016
Anomalies in the medial prefrontal cortex, anterior insulae and large-scale brain networks associated with them have been proposed to underlie the pathophysiology of schizophrenia and major depressive disorder (MDD).

Does muscle strength predict working memory? A cross-sectional fNIRS study in older adults

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023
ObjectivePrevious research has primarily focused on the association between muscle strength and global cognitive function in older adults, while the connection between muscle strength and advanced cognitive function such as inhibition and working memory (

Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors Control Encoding and Retrieval of Associative Recognition Memory through Plasticity in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) expressed in the medial prefrontal cortex have critical roles in cognitive function. However, whether nAChRs are required for associative recognition memory and the mechanisms by which nAChRs may ...

Chronic myocardial infarction changed the excitatory–inhibitory synaptic balance in the medial prefrontal cortex of rat

Molecular Pain, 2018
The medial prefrontal cortex is a key area for the regulation of pain and emotion. However, the functional involvement of the medial prefrontal cortex for visceral nociception, at the neuronal or synaptic level, is obscure yet.

DRD2/CHRNA5 interaction on prefrontal biology and physiology during working memory. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Prefrontal behavior and activity in humans are heritable. Studies in animals demonstrate an interaction between dopamine D2 receptors and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on prefrontal behavior but evidence in humans is weak.

Distraction of olfactory bulb-medial prefrontal cortex circuit may induce anxiety-like behavior in allergic rhinitis.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Allergic rhinitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the upper respiratory tract, which is associated with high incidence of anxiety symptom. There is evidence that medial prefrontal cortex modulates anxiety-related behaviors and receives projections ...

Resting-state coupling between core regions within the central-executive and salience networks contributes to working memory performance

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2016
Previous studies investigated the distinct roles played by different cognitive regions and suggested that the patterns of connectivity of these regions are associated with working memory.
