- 8T/F: Most association fibers of limbic system run in one direction.F. Usually both directions.
- 9Name the structure that serves the following function: 1. smell 2. emotion and drives 3. establishing new memories 4. homeostasis1. smell: olfactory cortex
2. emotion and drives: amygdala
3. establishing new memories: hippocampal formation
4. homeostasis: hypothalamus - 10The limbic system is a collection of cortical gyri buried within the __________.anteromedial telencephalon
- 11Key gyri in limbic system:1. cingulate
2. orbital frontal
3. rectus
4. parahippocampal - 12Hyppocampal formation are located (superficial/deep) to the parahippocampal gyri.Deep
- 13Anterior to the hippocampal formation is the _________.Amygdala
- 14Structure responsible for: 1. conscious detection of smell 2. ordor discrimination1. primary olfactory cortex
2. orbitofrontal olfactory area - 15the _________ of the parahippocampal gyrus is an important target for the emotional and memory aspect of smell.entorhinal cortex
- 16The ________ forms explicit memory.hippocampal formation
- 17What are considered as 'explicit memory'?1. conscious cognitive
2. verbal-based learning processes - 18Location of hippocampal formationdeep to entorhinal cortex
- 19Three parts of the hippocampal formation1. dentate gyrus
2. hippocampus
3. subiculum - 20T/F: All hippocampal formation are neocortexF.
Archicortex. - 21Which three layers of cells are in the hippocampal formation?1. molecular layer
2. pyramidal or granular layer
3. polymorphic layer - 22The _______ and _______ folds twice.dentate gyrus
hippocampus - 23The hippocampus forms the ___ of lateral ventricle in the _____ horn.floor (medial wall)
inferior horn - 24The parahippocampal gyrus ends up on the _____ surface of the medial temporal cortex, around the _______.inferior
around midbrain - 25Uncus is _______ with mammilary bodies.parallel
- 26Many neocortical areas project to the entorhinal cortex, which projects to the _______ gyrus via _______.dentate gyrus
via the perforant pathway - 27The perforant pathway (or indirect perforant pathway) is important for _________long term synaptic plasticity [long-term potentiation (LTP)]
- 283 layers of dentate gyrus from outer to inner1. molecular (outer)
2. granular (middle)
3. polymorphic (inner fiber tracts) - 29The perforant pathway from entorhinal input synapse with the ____ cells in the dentate gyrusgranule cells
- 30Granule cell axons ( _______ fibers) from dentate gyrus project to the _____ and synapse on _____ pyramidal cells.Granule cell axons [dentate fibers] from dentate gyrus project to the [hippocampus] and synapse on [CA3] pyramidal cells.
- 31CA3 axons are called theSchaffer collateral fibers
- 32CA3 axons project to _____ neurons.CA1
- 33T/F: CA3---CA1 pathway is also long-term potentiation pathway.T.
- 34Entorhinal cortex also have direct pathway to _____ and _____ pyramidal cells in the hippocampus. This pathway is called _______.CA1 and CA3
alvear pathway (direct perforant pathway) - 35The direct perforant pathway leads back to _____ and ______.The subiculum
and
entorhinal cortex - 36Feedback loops run from ____ to _____ and then to _______.subiculum --- entorhinal --- association cortex
- 37The hippocampus and subiculum also form output paths to limbic system, thalamus, and hypothalamus via ________The fornix
- 38Fornix is a white matter tract formed by the axons from _______ and ______ which are directed into the _____.Pyramidal CA1 and CA3
directed to the fimbria - 39Fibers crossing between hemispheres are called ________. It is continuous with the (anterior/posterior) fornix.hippocampal commisure
continuous with anterior fornix - 40Non-decussating fornix fibers either 1) bend and descend behind the _____ and end up in the __________. 2) bend and direct anterior to the anterior commissure and terminate in the _________, which is related to our ______ system.1) Behind the anterior commisure
end up in the mammillary bodies
2) septal nuclei, reward system - 41Fornix fibers to mammillary bodies -->anterior thalamus --> anterior limb of internal capsule (thalamocortical fibers) --> cingulate gyrus
This is the second feedback loop to entorhinal cortex - 42T/F: the fornix pathway is bi-directional.T.
- 43Outline the Papez circuitparahippocampal entorhinal cortex --> dentate gyrus --> subiculum + hippocampus (pyramidal CA3 to CA1) --> fimbria --> fornix --> mammillary bodies --> anterior thalamus --> internal capsule --> cingulate gyrus --> back to parahippocampal gyrus
- 44___________ has a dominant role in emotional aspect of olfaction.Amygdala
- 45What happens to the patient if amygdala has lesion?placid, non-aggressive behavior
- 46S/S of hyperactive amygdalarage, fear, panic
- 47Connections the amygdala has1. limbic cortex
2. septal nuclei
3. hypothalamus
4. brainstem autonomic pathways - 48What are the 3 primary pathways of the amygdala?1. stria terminalis
2. ventral amygdalofugal
3. medial forebrain bundle - 49position of stria terminalismedial along caudate
similar path as fornix
form amygdala to ventromedial hypothalamus and septal nuclei - 50What does the stria terminalis carry?olfactory input to motivate/inhibit appetite
- 51The ventral amygdalofugal pathway projects to ______, _____ and _____ to support emotion, drive, and cognitive functions, and to ______ to impact homeostasis and arousal.septal, basal forebrain, and ventral striatum
