Dorsal Raphe Nucleus Down-Regulates Medial Prefrontal Cortex during Experience of Flow
Previous neuroimaging studies have suggested that the experience of flow aligns with a relative increase in activation of the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN), and relative activation decreases of the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) and of the amygdala (AMY). In the present study, Dynamic Causal Modeling (DCM) was used to explore effective connectivity between those brain regions. To test our hypothe...
متن کاملPropagation of spike and wave activity to the medial prefrontal cortex and dorsal raphe nucleus of WAG/Rij rats.
Although there is pharmacological evidence for the involvement of the serotonergic system in the expression of spike and wave discharges (SWDs) in experimental absence epilepsy, no direct investigation of this paroxysm in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN), one of the main serotonergic nuclei, has been carried out. We have now recorded the EEG simultaneously with local field potentials and unit act...
متن کاملTarget-specific modulation of the descending prefrontal cortex inputs to the dorsal raphe nucleus by cannabinoids.
Serotonin (5-HT) neurons located in the raphe nuclei modulate a wide range of behaviors by means of an expansive innervation pattern. In turn, the raphe receives a vast array of synaptic inputs, and a remaining challenge lies in understanding how these individual inputs are organized, processed, and modulated in this nucleus to contribute ultimately to the core coding features of 5-HT neurons. ...
متن کاملPrevious experience with behavioral control over stress blocks the behavioral and dorsal raphe nucleus activating effects of later uncontrollable stress: role of the ventral medial prefrontal cortex.
Previous experience with stressors over which the subject has behavioral control blocks the typical behavioral consequences of subsequent exposure to stressors over which the organism has no behavioral control. The present experiments explored the involvement of the ventral medial prefrontal cortex (mPFCv) in mediating this "immunizing" or resilience producing effect of an initial experience wi...
متن کاملMedial prefrontal cortex-dorsal anterior cingulate cortex connectivity during behavior selection without an objective correct answer.
Life choices (e.g., occupational choice) often include situations with two or more possible correct answers, thereby putting us in a situation of conflict. Recent reports have described that the evaluation of conflict might be crucially mediated by neural activity in the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC), although the reduction of conflict might rather be associated with neural activity i...
