Prefrontal cortex function in the representation of temporally complex events.
The frontal cortex and inferior temporal cortex are strongly functionally interconnected. Previous experiments on prefrontal function in monkeys have shown that a disconnection of prefrontal cortex from inferior temporal cortex impairs a variety of complex visual learning tasks but leaves simple concurrent object-reward association learning intact. We investigated the possibility that temporal ...
متن کاملheterogeneity within the orientalist discourse: representation of the orient in womens travelogues and mens paintings
from 1950s onward, new theories and critical approaches burgeoned across humanities. these theories were context-oriented; as a result, the analysis of discursive practices gained significance. thus, social, political, historical and cultural discourses that have been hitherto marginalized and considered inferior to literary texts, were introduced as important texts to be analyzed by critics. o...
Representation of interval timing by temporally scalable firing patterns in rat prefrontal cortex.
Perception of time interval on the order of seconds is an essential component of cognition, but the underlying neural mechanism remains largely unknown. In rats trained to estimate time intervals, we found that many neurons in the medial prefrontal cortex (PFC) exhibited sustained spiking activity with diverse temporal profiles of firing-rate modulation during the time-estimation period. Intere...
متن کاملDynamic Neuronal Representation in the Prefrontal Cortex
The present paper investigated the neural mechanisms underlying dynamic neural representation in the prefrontal cortex (PFC), which is thought to play a crucial role in flexible cognitive behavior. Neural representation is discrete or continuous according to the information to be encoded. The multistable attractor model is a plausible theory of flexible control of representation. Attractor stat...
متن کاملBehavioral function improvement of prefrontal cortex in treated depressed rats by ECT and ketamine
Background and Objective: Depression is one of the most prevalent mental disorders. Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) is one of the effective methods for treatment of depression. Regarding the stimulatory effect of glutaminergic system on the progression of depression, the effect of ketamine as one of the most important inhibitors of this system has been investigated on the effectiveness of ECT. ...
