Recent neuroimaging studies suggest that the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) contributes to regulation of emotion. However, the adaptive response of the vmPFC under acute stress is not understood. We used
Fourth, the prefrontal cortex (and for that matter the temporal lobe visual cortical areas) have also undergone great development in primates, and one part of the prefrontal cortex, the orbitofrontal cortex, is very little developed in rodents, yet is one of the major brain areas involved in ...
Functions of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) Functions include motivation, executive function, monitoring, response selection and inhibition. It is also involved in language functions such as regulating spontaneous speech narrative discourse and verbal fluency. Executive functions controlled by the...
We also know that (a) in adult monkeys these cognitive abilities depend critically on the dopaminergic projection to prefrontal cortex and (b) the distribution of dopamine axons within dorsolateral prefrontal cortex changes, and the level of dopamine increases, during the period that ...
or only a few rare dividing cells were found ([27] but see also [28,29]). The age of the subject seems to matter since the presence of a migratory stream containing dynamic neuroblasts has been observed in children where they integrate the olfactory bulb and the prefrontal cortex, but no...
The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) is primarily an 'executive' area of the brain, since this is neocortex, i.e., the evolutionarily newer portion of the brain. It has many connections to other parts of the brain and can influence other areas, but some of its more essen...
Executive functions are brain-based cognitive skills that facilitate critical thinking and self-regulation. Executive functions call upon the prefrontal cortex of our brains to help with goal-setting and decision making. These skills include flexibility, focus, organization, planning, self-awareness, self...

2.Posterior parietal cortex: This cortex helps organisms navigate in the space around them. 3.Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex: This cortex executes thoughts and internal rules that help prioritize which voluntary movements to enact. 4.Visual cortex: The visual cortex processes visual stimuli. It does ...
The conserved functional domains of KAT3 proteins include the acetyltransferase domain (KAT) and several protein interaction domains: NRID—nuclear receptor interaction domain, KIX—kinase inducible domain interacting domain, BD—bromodomain, CH1, CH2, and CH3 domains—cysteine/histidine-rich regions, ...
