From arousal to cognition: the integrative position of the prefrontal cortex.

TL;DR: This chapter analyzed the effects of manipulations of the main monoaminergic systems in the context of frontal lobe functions in rats, monkeys, and humans to find that the different chemically defined systems of the reticular core do have different neuromodulatory functions.

Differential involvement of amygdala subsystems in appetitive conditioning and drug addiction.

TL;DR: Data from appetitive conditioning studies consistently demonstrate double dissociations of function between the basolateral area and the central nucleus of the amygdala, consistent with the idea that these subsystems of the amygdala use differentassociative representations formed during conditioning, as part of a larger limbic cortico-striatal circuit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glutamate-dopamine interactions in the ventral striatum : role in locomotor activity and responding with conditioned reinforcement

TL;DR: In the conditioned reinforcement paradigm, both the agonist and the antagonists abolished amphetamine's potentiation of responding with conditioned reinforcement, suggesting that the glutamatergic transmission of information about the conditioned reinforcer could be blocked by glutamate receptor antagonists and disrupted by administration of the agonists.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hippocampal dysfunction in patients with mild cognitive impairment: A functional neuroimaging study of a visuospatial paired associates learning task

TL;DR: It is shown that the BOLD response in MCI patients can show both hyperactivation and hypoactivation in the same individuals as a function of memory load and encoding/retrieval, which suggests that performance on PAL might be a useful cognitive biomarker for early detection of Alzheimer's disease, especially when used in conjunction with neuroimaging.
Journal ArticleDOI

A specific form of cognitive rigidity following excitotoxic lesions of the basal forebrain in marmosets.

TL;DR: The effects of N-methyl-D-aspartate-induced lesions of the basal forebrain were studied on performance of a series of visual discrimination tests that examined a range of cognitive functions in the marmoset.
