The Functional Role of the Anterior Insular Cortex in Cognitive Control
… activated cognitive control network, and the anterior insular cortex (AIC) serves as one of its key structures. However, the functional role of the AIC in cognitive control has not been fully understood. A human lesion study was conducted to examine the necessary function of the AIC in …

Roles of orbitofrontal and insular cortices in processing reward variables
… rats and to test the role of the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) in this process. Rats were trained in a novel intertemporal choice task in which the sequence of delay durations was randomized across trials. The animals tended to choose a small immediate reward more frequently as the delay for a …

Characterisation of the role of peripheral μ-opioid receptors in the behavioural effects of heroin and their underlying neural systems in the rat
… the central nervous system which depends on the insular cortex, is involved in opioid use disorder either as a predictor or the outcome of opioid abuse. Yet the role of peripheral opioidergic mechanisms in the behavioural effects of heroin and its addictive properties remains unclear. Similarly, …

Investigating reinforcement learning processes in depression and substance use disorder: translational, computational and neuroimaging approaches.
… functional connectivity from the amygdala to the anterior cingulate cortex, infralimbic cortex and insular cortex compared to males. The subsequent chapter uses a computational approach to investigate latent vulnerability variables in cocaine addiction. A longitudinal dataset acquired in rats was …
