Figure 1

A schematic diagram depicting the location of lesions across studies in primates (upper panel) and rats (lower panel) in which the effects of ventral prefrontal cortex (PFC) damage on a variety of anxiety and conditioned/unconditioned fear tests have been investigated. AI, anterior insula; dAC, dorsal anterior cingulate; DLO, dorsolateral orbital area; IL, infralimbic cortex; LO, lateral orbital area; MO, medial orbital area; PL, prelimbic cortex; VO, ventral orbital area. Cytoarchitectonics of the ventral PFC are based on Carmichael and Price (1994; rhesus macaques), Burman and Rosa (2009; marmosets), Paxinos and Watson (2006; rats) and cortical granularity taken from Wise (2008).
