Activation in mesolimbic and visuospatial neural circuits elicited by smoking cues: evidence from functional magnetic resonance imaging.
(Am J Psychiatry, 2002-06)
OBJECTIVE: The authors sought to increase understanding of the brain mechanisms involved
in cigarette addiction by identifying neural substrates modulated by visual smoking
cues in nicotine-deprived smokers. METHOD: Event-related ...
A membrane-associated progesterone-binding protein, 25-Dx, is regulated by progesterone in brain regions involved in female reproductive behaviors.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2000-11-07)
The ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) plays a central role in the regulation of the
female reproductive behavior lordosis, a behavior dependent upon the sequential activation
of receptors for the ovarian steroid hormones estradiol ...
Faces evoke spatially differentiated patterns of BOLD activation and deactivation.
(Neuroreport, 2003-05-23)
Using fMRI techniques sensitive to blood oxygen-level dependent (BOLD) contrast, we
measured brain activity in participants (n=8) as they viewed images of faces presented
periodically within a continuously changing montage ...
The spatiotemporal dynamics of autobiographical memory: neural correlates of recall, emotional intensity, and reliving.
(Cereb Cortex, 2008-01)
We sought to map the time course of autobiographical memory retrieval, including brain
regions that mediate phenomenological experiences of reliving and emotional intensity.
Participants recalled personal memories to auditory ...
The short and long of it: neural correlates of temporal-order memory for autobiographical events.
(J Cogn Neurosci, 2008-07)
Previous functional neuroimaging studies of temporal-order memory have investigated
memory for laboratory stimuli that are causally unrelated and poor in sensory detail.
In contrast, the present functional magnetic resonance ...
Assessing visual requirements for social context-dependent activation of the songbird song system.
(Proc Biol Sci, 2009-01-22)
Social context has been shown to have a profound influence on brain activation in
a wide range of vertebrate species. Best studied in songbirds, when males sing undirected
song, the level of neural activity and expression ...
