Frontal Cortex Stimulation Reduces Vigilance to Threat: Implications for the Treatment of Depression and Anxiety.
BACKGROUND The difficulty in treating mood disorders has brought about clinical interest in alternative treatments, such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). However, the optimal parameters for stimulation and underlying mechanisms of action are unclear. Psychiatric treatments have acute effects on emotional processing that predict lat...
متن کاملRapid eye movement (REM) sleep deprivation reduces rat frontal cortex acetylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.7) activity.
Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep deprivation induces several behavioral changes. Among these, a decrease in yawning behavior produced by low doses of cholinergic agonists is observed which indicates a change in brain cholinergic neurotransmission after REM sleep deprivation. Acetylcholinesterase (Achase) controls acetylcholine (Ach) availability in the synaptic cleft. Therefore, altered Achase ac...
متن کاملFrontal Cortex Evolution in Primates
The frontal cortex can be defined as the neocortex anterior to the motor somatosensory–cortex border. This is a large region in primates, containing areas involved directly or indirectly in the control of almost every behavior. It has long been thought that the frontal cortex played an important role in primate evolution. Modern evidence supports this view. Indeed, given the diversity of functi...
متن کاملFrontal cortex TMS for tinnitus.
Both invasive and non-invasive neuromodulation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) are capable of suppressing tinnitus loudness. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the DLPFC has an add-on effect for auditory cortex (AC) rTMS in improving tinnitus-related distress. We aimed to investigate whether TMS and rTMS of the DLPFC is capable of reducing tinnitus loudness and...
متن کاملScopolamine enhances generalization between odor representations in rat olfactory cortex.
Acetylcholine (ACh) has a critical, modulatory role in plasticity in many sensory systems. In the rat olfactory system, both behavioral and physiological data indicate that ACh may be required for normal odor memory and synaptic plasticity. Based on these data, neural network models have hypothesized that ACh muscarinic receptors reduce interference between learned cortical representations of o...
