Lateral Entorhinal Cortex

@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaFMM -> BrainRegionFMM_NC_PH_LEC

This page covers biological details of component Lateral Entorhinal Cortex. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

Top-down path to region: Cerebral Cortex -> Parahippocampal Lobe (NC.LOBE.PH) -> Anterior Parahippocampal Gyrus (FMM.NC.PHA) -> Rhinal Cortex (NC.PHA.RH) -> Entorhinal Cortex (FMM.NC.PH.ET) -> Lateral Entorhinal Cortex (FMM.NC.PH.LEC) (see Mind Maps)
Type: cortex
Brain area: Forebrain - Memory Management Area
Brodmann ID: 28
Role: processor
Function: Memory consolidation, emotional aspects
Notes to function: non-spatial input to HC; process information about individual items and locations based on a local frame of reference, primarily using external sensory input; it provides the hippocampus with information about content of experience
