Non-apical plateau potentials and persistent firing induced by metabotropic cholinergic modulation in layer 2/3 pyramidal cells in the rat prefrontal cortex
2023-11-05
Abstract excerpt
The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is important for executive functions, including attention, planning, decision-making, and memory, and is proposed by some leading theories to be crucial for consciousness. In particular, the global neuronal workspace theory proposes that PFC layer 2/3 pyramidal cells (L2/3PCs) contribute crucially to the ‘global workspace’, and hence to consciousness, due to their long-range connections...
