Role of the anterior cingulate cortex in the retrieval of novel object recognition memory after a long delay (2017)
Journal Article
Pezze, M. A., Marshall, H. J., Fone, K. C., & Cassaday, H. J. (2017). Role of the anterior cingulate cortex in the retrieval of novel object recognition memory after a long delay. Learning and Memory, 24(7), 310-317. https://doi.org/10.1101/lm.044784.116

Previous in vivo electrophysiological studies suggest that the anterior cingulate cortex (ACgx) is an important substrate of novel object recognition (NOR) memory. However, intervention studies are needed to confirm this conclusion and permanent lesi...

Cognitive deficits caused by prefrontal cortical and hippocampal neural disinhibition (2017)
Journal Article
Bast, T., Pezze, M., & McGarrity, S. (2017). Cognitive deficits caused by prefrontal cortical and hippocampal neural disinhibition. British Journal of Pharmacology, 174(19), 3211-3225. https://doi.org/10.1111/bph.13850

We review recent evidence concerning the significance of inhibitory GABA transmission and of neural disinhibition, i.e. deficient GABA transmission, within prefrontal cortex and hippocampus for clinically relevant cognitive functions. Both regions su... Read More about Cognitive deficits caused by prefrontal cortical and hippocampal neural disinhibition.
