Extracellular single unit activity was recorded from medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) of postpartum dams over the course of 3days while they engaged in spontaneous pup-directed behaviors and non-specific exploratory behavior. Out of 109units identified over the course of the experiment, 15 units were observed to be pup-responsive and 15 increased their discharge rates non-specifically while not attending...
The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) plays a role in anticipation of rewards and goal orientation, properties that are influenced by cocaine administration. Single‐unit firing was measured in the mPFC of seven male rats during the expression of approach responses toward a sexually receptive female. Nose‐poking in male rats was used as a measure of approach behavior during the following periods: a baseline,...
Previous research suggests that the maternal medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) may play a role in maternal care and that cocaine sensitization before pregnancy can affect neuronal activity within this region. The present work was carried out to test whether the mPFC does actually play a role in the expression of maternal behaviors in the rats and to understand what specific behaviors this cortical area...
