While some recent neuroimaging studies have implicated medial rostral prefrontal cortex (MPFC) in 'mentalizing' and self-reflection, others have implicated this region in attention towards perceptual vs self-generated information. In order to reconcile these seemingly contradictory findings, we used fMRI ...

Widespread anatomical NAc stimulation of intake is also similar to mu-opioid stimula- tion, which increases eating at all sites throughout shell and core, as well as in dorsal and ventrolateral regions of neostriatum, in central nucleus of amygdala, and in medial prefrontal cortex (Castro and ...
Additionally, medial prefrontal cortex, hippocampal, and amygdalar activations were noted during the first, but not second, presentation of aversive pictures. These findings highlight the phasic activity of the rACC in emotional processing consistent with habituation....
Rostral anterior cingulate cortex activity mediates the relationship between the depressive symptoms and the medial prefrontal cortex activity. Depression is characterized by enhanced self-referential processing of negative emotional stimuli. Imaging studies have suggested that activation of both t... S Yoshi...

The nucleus accumbens (NAc) contains a hedonic hotspot in the rostral half of medial shell, where opioid agonist microinjections are known to enhance positive hedonic orofacial reactions to the taste of sucrose (‘liking’ reactions). Within NAc shell, o
(2012) reported increased activation in the medial rostral pre-frontal cortex(rPFC,BA10),an area related to emotional and self-relevant processing(Ochsner and Gross,2005),during an evalua-tion of artworks that were experienced as intense by art naïve viewers. The interaction between emotion an...
