Electrophysiological characterization of synaptic transmission in the mPFC slices obtained from LV-GFP and LV-SR animals indicated a significant increase in isolated NMDAR-mediated synaptic ...

As hypothesized, experiments indicated that the mPFC is the basis of emotional inference. Before undergoing aversive conditioning, neurons in the mPFC responded similarly to both the image and the ...

These therapeutic effects are thought to involve modulation of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), a brain region implicated in depression pathology. This study presents preliminary ...

The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is a brain region involved in decision-making and behavioral flexibility, and it has been identified as a potential mediator of behavioral inhibition.

But it was unknown how the mPFC represented this information and ... competitive mood and be more likely to snatch that pizza slice before your boss, a subordinate mouse might be in a more ...

Team members observed that neurons in the mPFC developed a similar mental map during the learning process. They also found that when the activity of the LEC neurons was inhibited, those in the ...

In a new study published in PLOS Biology, a research team found that damage to distinct parts of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) were linked to being influenced by impulsive decision making by ...

When patients with dependence on alcohol, cocaine or nicotine are shown drug cues, or images related to the substance, an area of their brain known as the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC ...

A 2018 article discussing empathy in Current Opinion in Behavioral Sciences shows there is a clear role played by the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) in emotional empathy and associated positive ...
