  2. Cingulate cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cingulate_cortex

    The cingulate cortex includes the entire cingulate gyrus, which lies immediately above the corpus callosum, and the continuation of this in the cingulate sulcus. The cingulate cortex is usually considered part of the limbic lobe .

  3. Cingulum (brain) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cingulum_(brain)

    It is located beneath the cingulate gyrus within the medial surface of the brain therefore encircling the entire brain. There are two primary parts of the cingulate cortex: the posterior cingulate cortex and the anterior cingulate cortex. The anterior is linked to emotion, especially apathy and depression. Here function and structure changes ...

  4. Isthmus of cingulate gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isthmus_of_cingulate_gyrus

    The cingulate gyrus commences below the rostrum of the corpus callosum, curves around in front of the genu, extends along the upper surface of the body, and finally turns downward behind the splenium, where it is connected by a narrow isthmus with the parahippocampal gyrus.

  5. Posterior cingulate cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_cingulate_cortex

    The posterior cingulate cortex is considered a paralimbic cortical structure, consisting of Brodmann areas 23 and 31. As part of the paralimbic cortex, it has fewer than six layers, placing its cell architecture in between the six-layered neocortex and the more primitive allocortex of core limbic structures. It has also been associated with the ...

  6. Septal area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septal_area

    The septal nuclei receive reciprocal connections from the olfactory bulb, hippocampus, amygdala, hypothalamus, midbrain, habenula, cingulate gyrus, and thalamus. The septal nuclei are essential in generating the theta rhythm of the hippocampus.

  7. Anterior cingulate cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_cingulate_cortex

    The adjacent subcallosal cingulate gyrus has been implicated in major depression and research indicates that deep-brain stimulation of the region could act to alleviate depressive symptoms. [36] Although people with depression had smaller subgenual ACCs, [ 37 ] their ACCs were more active when adjusted for size.

  8. Plant cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_cell

    Structure of a plant cell. Plant cells are the cells present in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae.Their distinctive features include primary cell walls containing cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectin, the presence of plastids with the capability to perform photosynthesis and store starch, a large vacuole that regulates turgor pressure, the absence of flagella or ...

  9. Brodmann area 32 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_32

    The Brodmann area 32, also known in the human brain as the dorsal anterior cingulate area 32, refers to a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined cingulate cortex. In the human it forms an outer arc around the anterior cingulate gyrus .
