The contributions of posterior lateral temporal cortex to language and control networks
… is subserved by the bilateral anterior temporal lobe hub and its connections to modality-specific spokes distributed throughout the cortex, while semantic control – the flexible, goal-oriented access and manipulation of this meaningful information – relies upon a left-lateralised set of …

Neurotrophic Theory of Accelerated Temporal Cortex Maturation in the Valproic Acid Rat Model of Autism
Neuronal networks in the human ventro-anterior temporal lobe play a critical role in mediating object perception, long term semantic memory and social communication. A unique feature of this region is its delayed acquisition of peak cortical thickness, which is not reached until the second decade …

AN ANATOMICAL AND IMMUNOCYTOCHEMICAL STUDY OF THE PRIMATE TEMPORAL AND FRONTAL CORTEX
Studies were carried out on the human and monkey temporal cortex, and, for comparison, the human frontal cortex. The neurons were studied by light and electron microscopy, and some of their immunocytochemical characteristics elucidated. Neurons in much of the left temporal cortex, apart from area …

Changes in cerebral glucose metabolism in patients with Parkinson’s disease with dementia after cholinesterase inhibitor therapy
… of decreased glucose metabolism in right medial temporal cortex, including fusiform, parrahippocampal gyrus and hippocampus. The degree of improvement in MMSE score only correlated with degree of decreased glucose metabolism on right medial temporal cortex. DISCUSSION: Our study has shown that …

Posterior cerebral artery (PCA) infarcts and dreaming : a neuropsychological study
… loss of dreaming can result from medial occipitotemporal lesions. These findings have cast doubt on Solms's reformulation of Charcot-Wilbrand Syndrome (CWS) into two distinct disorders of dreaming, and caused substantial confusion in dream research as far as the neurological correlates of …

Perceived Size Modulates Cortical Processing of Objects
… visual processes across lateral occipital-temporal cortex (LOC), primary visual cortices (V1/V2) and ventral occipital-temporal cortex. Recent studies suggest activations in these object recognition areas and others, such as the fusiform face area (FFA) and extra-striate body area (EBA), …

Análises de redes modulares de co-expressão gênica revelam vias importantes na doença de Alzheimer e paralisia supranuclear progressiva
… RNA-seq data obtained from two brain regions (temporal cortex and cerebellum) of human patients diagnosed with neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer or Progressive Supranuclear Palsy) and two animal models, 5XFAD of amyloidopathy and TauD35 of tauopathy, we performed an integrative analysis at …

Atypical Lateralization of Language and Face Processing in Autism Spectrum Disorder
… processing, particularly in posterior lateral temporal cortex. This is an important contribution to the mixed existing literature, and further demonstrates the importance of individual ROI localization when studying neurodiverse populations. Atypical development of hemispheric asymmetry for …

Examining Face Perception with Self-Reports and Neural Measures: An SSVEP study
… was especially clear over the right occipito-temporal cortex. Thus, this study has revealed a link between neural variations in the right occipito-temporal cortex and self-reported face recognition. This knowledge could be useful in a variety of fields, such as designing training programs for …

Profiling the dynamics of the active transcriptome in the juvenile and adult brain using spatial transcriptomics
… postnatal to adult state. Samples from the human temporal cortex (4-, 15- (x2), and 31-year-old) were obtained during elective surgeries to treat epilepsy. Tissue samples were freshly frozen in OCT. H&E (hematoxylin and eosin) staining was employed for the initial screening of the tissue samples. …

Neural Correlates of Repetition Priming: Changes in fMRI Activation and Synchrony
… category-preferential regions in ventral occipitotemporal cortex (VOTC) play an important role; some have reported increased neural synchrony between prefrontal cortex and temporal cortex associated with stimulus repetition. Based on these results, I hypothesized that increased neural synchrony, …

Magnetoencephalographic studies of neural systems associated with higher order processes in humans
… are predominantly in right inferior occipito-temporal cortex, b) MEG recordings are useful in the study of autism, in that autistic subjects exhibit different responses to normal subjects following face presentation, c) phase-locked y-band activity has a specific role in semantic processing of …

The role of real-world size in object representation
… of object knowledge in ventral visual cortex (Chapter 4). Specifically, there are regions with differential selectivity for big and small objects, that span from along the dorsal and lateral surfaces of occipito-temporal cortex in a mirrored organization. Finally, I suggest that the …

Longitudinal Change In Regional Cortices And Fluid Intelligence
… Some brain regions such as prefrontal, parietal, temporal and anterior cingulate cortices were included in the P-FIT model and were hypothesized to be involved in fluid reasoning task. Therefore, in the current study, we examined latent growth curves (LGC) of longitudinal change in Gf, Gc, …

Cortical Processing of Visual Parts and Wholes
… with activation in the lateral occipital-temporal cortex (LOC), whereas configural processes correspond to activation in the parietal lobe, particularly the intraparietal sulcus (IPS). This study combined theories of visual part structure with neuroimaging methods to investigate the …

Neural mechanisms underlying core visual perception of objects
… previous research has revealed that the inferior temporal cortex (IT), a high-level visual area, is involved in various aspects of visual perception. Yet, little is known about: how IT neural responses to objects support human perception of the objects; and how IT responses are produced from …

Neurale Mechanismen "intuitiver" Urteilsprozesse

Towards a complete human cell atlas: a single-nucleus RNA sequencing study of the paediatric and adult human brain
… susceptibility for neuropsychiatric risk. While temporal gene expression dynamics over this period have been studied extensively, there are no studies exploring the paediatric brain at single cell resolution. To address this, we present the first paediatric brain cell atlas comprising of 6 single …

Neural dynamics of the anesthetized brain and the control of conscious states
… across prefrontal cortices (PFC), parietal cortex, temporal cortex, and the mediodorsal and intralaminar thalamic nuclei. Propofol decreased brain-wide spiking and high-frequency LFPs (e.g. gamma, 30- 80Hz) while producing prominent slow cortical oscillations (0-4 Hz). These slow rhythms …
