The Journal of Neuroscience, July 23, 2014 • 34(30):10041–10054 • 10041 Systems/Circuits Frontal Cortical and Subcortical Projections Provide a Basis for Segmenting the Cingulum Bundle: Implications for Neuroimaging and Psychiatric Disorders Sarah R. Heilbronner and Suzanne N. Haber Department of Pharmacology and Physiology, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester, New York 14642 The cingulum bundle (CB) is one of the brain’s major white matter pathways, linking regions associated with executive function, decision-making, and emotion. Neuroimaging has revealed that abnormalities in particular locations within the CB are associated with specific psychiatric disorders, including depression and bipolar disorder. However, the fibers using each portion of the CB remain unknown. In this study, we used anatomical tract-tracing in nonhuman primates (Macaca nemestrina, Macaca fascicularis, Macaca mulatta)toexaminetheorganizationofspecificcingulate,noncingulatefrontal,andsubcorticalpathwaysthroughtheCB.Thegoalswere as follows: (1) to determine connections that use the CB, (2) to establish through which parts of the CB these fibers travel, and (3) to relate the CB fiber pathways to the portions of the CB identified in humans as neurosurgical targets for amelioration of psychiatric disorders. Results indicate that cingulate, noncingulate frontal, and subcortical fibers all travel through the CB to reach both cingulate and noncin- gulate targets. However, many brain regions send projections through only part, not all, of the CB. For example, amygdala fibers are not present in the caudal portion of the dorsal CB. These results allow segmentation of the CB into four unique zones. We identify the specific connections that are abnormal in psychiatric disorders and affected by neurosurgical interventions, such as deep brain stimulation and cingulotomy. -

Only primates have temporal lobes, which are largest in man, accommodating 17% of the cerebral cortex and including areas with auditory, olfactory, vestibular, visual and linguistic functions. The hippocampal formation, on the medial side of the lobe, includes the parahippocampal gyrus, subiculum, hippocampus, dentate gyrus, and associated white matter, notably the fimbria, whose fibres continue into the fornix. The hippocampus is an inrolled gyrus that bulges into the temporal horn of the lateral ventricle. Association fibres connect all parts of the cerebral cortex with the parahippocampal gyrus and subiculum, which in turn project to the dentate gyrus. The largest efferent projection of the subiculum and hippocampus is through the fornix to the hypothalamus. The choroid fissure, alongside the fimbria, separates the temporal lobe from the optic tract, hypothalamus and midbrain. The amygdala comprises several nuclei on the medial aspect of the temporal lobe, mostly anterior the hippocampus and indenting the tip of the temporal horn. The amygdala receives input from the olfactory bulb and from association cortex for other modalities of sensation. -

This review describes the results of quantitative and qualitative studies that have used electroencephalography (EEG) and magneto-encephalography (MEG) to evaluate responses to olfactory stimulation (OS). EEG and MEG are able to detect the components of chemosensory event-related potentials (CSERPs) and the cortical rhythms associated with different types of OS. Olfactory studies are filling the gaps in both the developmental field of the life cycle (from newborns to geriatric age) and the clinical and basic research fields, in a way that can be considered the modern “cognitive neuro-olfactometry”.

Supporting Information for “Endocast Morphology of Homo naledi from the Dinaledi Chamber, South Africa” Ralph L. Holloway, Shawn D. Hurst, Heather M. Garvin, P. Thomas Schoenemann, William B. Vanti, Lee R. Berger, and John Hawks What follows are our descriptions, illustrations, some basic interpretation, and a more specific discussion of the functional, comparative, and taxonomic issues surrounding these hominins. We use the neuroanatomical nomenclature from Duvernoy (19). DH1 Occipital The DH1 occipital fragment (Figs 1, S2) measures ca 105 mm in width between left temporo- occipital incisure and right sigmoid sinus. It is 61 mm in height on the left side, and 47 mm on the right side. The fragment covers the entire left and mostly complete right occipital lobes. The lobes are strongly asymmetrical, with the left clearly larger than the right, and more posteriorly protruding. There are faint traces of a lateral remnant of the lunate sulcus on the left side, and a dorsal bounding lunate as well (#4 and #6 in Fig 1). The right side shows a very small groove at the end of the lateral sinus, which could be a remnant of the lunate sulcus. The major flow from the longitudinal sinus is to the right. Small portions of both cerebellar lobes, roughly 15 mm in height are present. There is a suggestion of a great cerebellar sulcus on the right side. The width from the left lateral lunate impression to the midline is 43mm. The distance from left occipital pole (the most posteriorly projecting point, based on our best estimate of the proper orientation) to the mid-sagittal plane is 30 mm. -
On the Scent of Human Olfactory Orbitofrontal Cortex: Meta-Analysis and Comparison to Non-Human Primates
Brain Research Reviews 50 (2005) 287 – 304 www.elsevier.com/locate/brainresrev Review On the scent of human olfactory orbitofrontal cortex: Meta-analysis and comparison to non-human primates Jay A. Gottfrieda,*, David H. Zaldb aDepartment of Neurology and the Cognitive Neurology and Alzheimer’s Disease Center, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, 320 E. Superior St., Searle 11-453, Chicago, IL 60611, USA bDepartment of Psychology, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37240, USA Accepted 25 August 2005 Available online 6 October 2005 Abstract It is widely accepted that the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) represents the main neocortical target of primary olfactory cortex. In non-human primates, the olfactory neocortex is situated along the basal surface of the caudal frontal lobes, encompassing agranular and dysgranular OFC medially and agranular insula laterally, where this latter structure wraps onto the posterior orbital surface. Direct afferent inputs arrive from most primary olfactory areas, including piriform cortex, amygdala, and entorhinal cortex, in the absence of an obligatory thalamic relay. While such findings are almost exclusively derived from animal data, recent cytoarchitectonic studies indicate a close anatomical correspondence between non-human primate and human OFC. Given this cross-species conservation of structure, it has generally been presumed that the olfactory projection area in human OFC occupies the same posterior portions of OFC as seen in non-human primates. This review questions this assumption by providing a critical survey of the localization of primate and human olfactory neocortex. Based on a meta-analysis of human functional neuroimaging studies, the region of human OFC showing the greatest olfactory responsivity appears substantially rostral and in a different cytoarchitectural area than the orbital olfactory regions as defined in the monkey. -

The Neuroscience of Emotional Disorders
Handbook of Clinical Neurology, Vol. 183 (3rd series) Disorders of Emotion in Neurologic Disease K.M. Heilman and S.E. Nadeau, Editors https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-822290-4.00002-5 Copyright © 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved Chapter 1 The neuroscience of emotional disorders EDMUND T. ROLLS1,2* 1Oxford Centre for Computational Neuroscience, Oxford, United Kingdom 2Department of Computer Science, University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom Abstract Emotions can be defined as states elicited by rewards or punishments, and indeed the neurology of emotional disorders can be understood in terms of this foundation. The orbitofrontal cortex in humans and other primates is a critical area in emotion processing, determining the value of stimuli and whether they are rewarding or nonrewarding. The cortical processing that occurs before the orbitofrontal cortex primarily involves defining the identity of stimuli, i.e., “what” is present and not reward value. There is evidence that this holds true for taste, visual, somatosensory, and olfactory stimuli. The human medial orbitofrontal cortex is important in processing many different types of reward, and the lateral orbitofrontal cortex in processing nonreward and punishment. Humans with damage to the orbitofrontal cortex have an impaired ability to identify facial and voice expressions of emotions, and impaired subjective experience of emotion. They can have an altered personality and be impulsive because they are impaired at processing failures to receive expected rewards and at processing punishments. In humans, the role of the amygdala in the processing of emotions is reduced because of the great evolutionary development of the orbitofrontal cortex: amygdala damage has much less effect on emotion than does orbitofrontal cortex damage. -

Complementary Patterns of Direct Amygdala and Hippocampal Projections to the Macaque Prefrontal Cortex John P

Saunders3 1School of Psychology, Cardiff University, Cardiff, Wales CF10 3AT, UK, 2School of Medicine, Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology, Boston University, Boston MA 02118, USA, and 3Laboratory of Neuropsychology, National Institute of Mental Health, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA Address correspondence to: John P. Aggleton, School of Psychology, Cardiff University, Park Place, Cardiff, Wales CF10 3AT, UK. Email: [email protected] Abstract The projections from the amygdala and hippocampus (including subiculum and presubiculum) to prefrontal cortex were compared using anterograde tracers injected into macaque monkeys (Macaca fascicularis, Macaca mulatta). Almost all prefrontal areas were found to receive some amygdala inputs. These connections, which predominantly arose from the intermediate and magnocellular basal nucleus, were particularly dense in parts of the medial and orbital prefrontal cortex. Contralateral inputs were not, however, observed. The hippocampal projections to prefrontal areas were far more restricted, being confined to the ipsilateral medial and orbital prefrontal cortex (within areas 11, 13, 14, 24a, 32, and 25). These hippocampal projections principally arose from the subiculum, with the fornix providing the sole route. Thus, while the lateral prefrontal cortex essentially receives only amygdala inputs, the orbital prefrontal cortex receives both amygdala and hippocampal inputs, though these typically target different areas. Only in medial prefrontal cortex do direct inputs from both structures terminate in common sites.
