Structural and functional variations in the prefrontal cortex are associated with learning in pre-adolescent common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus)

There is substantial evidence linking the prefrontal cortex (PFC) to a variety of cognitive abilities, with adolescence being a critical period in its development. In the current study, we investigated the neural basis of differences in learning in pre-adolescent common marmosets. At 8 months old, m...

description There is substantial evidence linking the prefrontal cortex (PFC) to a variety of cognitive abilities, with adolescence being a critical period in its development. In the current study, we investigated the neural basis of differences in learning in pre-adolescent common marmosets. At 8 months old, marmosets were given anatomical and resting state MRI scans (n = 24). At 9 months old, association learning and inhibitory control was tested using a ‘go/no go’ visual discrimination (VD) task. Marmosets were grouped into ‘learners’ (n = 12) and “non-learners” (n = 12), and associations between cognitive performance and sub-regional PFC volumes, as well as PFC connectivity patterns, were investigated. “Learners” had significantly (p

Marmosets were grouped into ‘learners’ (n = 12) and “non-learners” (n = 12), and associations between cognitive performance and sub-regional PFC volumes, as well as PFC connectivity patterns, were investigated. “Learners” had significantly (p &lt; 0.05) larger volumes of areas 11, 25, 47 and 32 than ‘non-learners’, although ‘non-learners’ had significantly larger volumes of areas 24a and 8 v than “learners”. There was also a significant correlation between average % correct responses to the ‘punished’ stimulus and volume of area 47. Further, ‘non-learners’ had significantly greater global PFC connections, as well as significantly greater numbers of connections between the PFC and basal ganglia, cerebellum and hippocampus, compared to ‘learners’. These results suggest that larger sub-regions of the orbitofrontal cortex and ventromedial PFC, as well more refined PFC connectivity patterns to other brain regions associated with learning, may be important in successful response inhibition.
