Theories and models of working memory (WM) were at least since the mid-1990s dominated
by the persistent activity hypothesis. The past decade has seen rising concerns about the …

Emerging evidence implicates rodent medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in tasks requiring
adaptation of behavior to changing information from external and internal sources. However …

Short-term memory enables incorporation of recent experience into subsequent decision-
making. This processing recruits both the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus, where …

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease associated with dysregulated glucose and insulin
levels and an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD) later in life. It is thought …

Background Hippocampal avoidance has been suggested as a strategy to reduce short-term
memory decline in adults receiving whole-brain radiation therapy (RT). The purpose of this …

Neural signatures of working memory (WM) have been reported in numerous brain areas,
suggesting a distributed neural substrate for memory maintenance. In the current manuscript …

Background Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) secreted from atrial myocytes is shown to
possess anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and immunomodulatory effects. The aim of this study …

The hippocampus (HPC) and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) have well-established roles in
cognition, emotion, and sensory processing. In recent years, interests have shifted towards …

The prefrontal cortex is central to the orchestrated brain network communication that gives
rise to working memory and other cognitive functions. Accordingly, working memory deficits …

The quest to understand the memory engram has intrigued humans for centuries. Recent
technological advances, including genetic labeling, imaging, optogenetic and chemogenetic …
