Chemogenetic inactivation reveals the inhibitory control function of the prefronto-striatal pathway in the macaque brain
In order to validate a previously inferred function of the lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC)-caudate nucleus (CdN) pathway in humans in inhibitory control and working memory, Oguchi et al used pathway-selective chemogenetic manipulation of neural activity in macaques. By suppressing pathway-specific...

Sumario: | In order to validate a previously inferred function of the lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC)-caudate nucleus (CdN) pathway in humans in inhibitory control and working memory, Oguchi et al used pathway-selective chemogenetic manipulation of neural activity in macaques. By suppressing pathway-specific neural activity and observing resultant behavioural changes, they provided evidence that the LPFC-CdN pathway does indeed play a role in inhibitory control. |
