For example, when the cell damage encompassed nerve pathways extending from the amygdala, a brain structure involved with emotion, the cats would attack humans or other cats.
In overweight rats fed a western-style diet, the dye appears to collect preferentially in the hippocampus, a brain structure involved with important learning and memory functions.
Finally, hormones greatly influence behavior and their receptor distribution differs between sexes in the brain structures involved with cognition [42].
Future directions are to explore the functional connectivity between the DMN, periaqueductal gray (PAG), aINS, and pINS and key brain structures involved with cognitive, evaluative, and modulatory pain processing in older adults.
Compulsive hoarders, compared with people with other compulsive symptoms, had decreased activity in the anterior cingulate, a brain structure involved in decision making and problem solving.
In fact, 1,000 new cells are produced every day in the hippocampus, a brain structure involved in learning and memory.
In this image from a portion of the hippocampus, a brain structure involved in memory, neurons (distinguishable by their distinct round cell bodies) and astrocytes (distinguishable by their diffuse star shape), a support cell in the brain, are labeled with multiple distinct colors.
Another crucial brain structure involved in spatial behavior is the hippocampus.
Since such effects disappeared in animals with bilateral DLF lesions [12], it follows that the SRD is a good candidate as a brain structure involved in the effects described in the present study.
Evidence from the neuropsychological and neuroimaging literature suggests that the specific brain structures involved in egocentric mental rotation are partially distinct from those involved with object-centered rotation.
Diffusion-weighted tractography studies should focus on the differential connectivities of the putative superior and inferior AIC subregions, specifically with respect to other brain structures involved in performance monitoring.
