Attentional functions of the forebrain cholinergic systems: effects of intraventricular hemicholinium, physostigmine, basal forebrain lesions and intracortical grafts on a multiple-choice serial reaction time task.
TL;DR: Cholinergic dysfunction can produce deficits in visual attention which can be ameliorated by cholinergic treatments such as physostigmine or Cholinergic-rich cortical grafts, and data provide support for a role for the basal forebrain-neocorticalcholinergic projection in attentional function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fear-Conditioning Mechanisms Associated with Trait Vulnerability to Anxiety in Humans
Iole Indovina,Trevor W. Robbins,Anwar O. Nunez-Elizalde,Barnaby D. Dunn,Sonia J. Bishop,Sonia J. Bishop,Sonia J. Bishop +6 more
TL;DR: Evidence is found for two independent dimensions of neurocognitive function associated with trait vulnerability to anxiety; increased amygdala responsivity to phasic fear cues and impoverished ventral prefrontal cortical recruitment to downregulate both cued and contextual fear before omission of the aversive unconditioned stimulus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemistry of the mind: neurochemical modulation of prefrontal cortical function.
TL;DR: Evidence is surveyed from studies of rats, nonhuman primates, and humans to suggest that prefrontal dopamine has specific functions in attentional control and working memory, mediated mainly through the D1 receptor, whereas manipulations of serotonin are shown by contrast to affect reversal learning in monkeys and human volunteers and measures of impulsivity in rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atomoxetine Modulates Right Inferior Frontal Activation During Inhibitory Control: A Pharmacological Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study
Samuel R. Chamberlain,Adam Hampshire,Ulrich Müller,Katya Rubia,Natalia del Campo,Kevin J. Craig,Ralf Regenthal,John Suckling,Jonathan P. Roiser,Jon E. Grant,Edward T. Bullmore,Trevor W. Robbins,Barbara J. Sahakian +12 more
TL;DR: Results show that atomoxetine exerts its beneficial effects on inhibitory control via modulation of right inferior frontal function, with implications for understanding and treating inhibitory dysfunction of ADHD and other disorders.
