Limbic system & approach to amnesia
1. Limbic System network
& approach to amnesia
Dr.Abhinav Kumar
Medicine Resident
M.S Ramaiah medical college
2. ī˛ Border is between the neocortex and the subcortical
structures (diencephalon).
ī˛ Concept of limbic system as an emotional system is the
legacy of McLean (1950âs)
ī˛ proposed by Papez (1930âs)
ī˛ anatomical name âlimbicâ introduced by Broca (1870âs).
ī˛ The limbic system has evolved to the point that it is not
longer anatomically correct or relevant. It should be
abandoned and replaced by âbrain emotional systemâ or
âemotional brainâ.

10. Limbic System
ī˛ Limbic Lobe and Papez Circuit together
ī˛ Distinguishes human emotions and responses to
situations from the stereotypical response of animals
due to reflexive systems involving brainstem

15. Hippocampus
ī˛ Hippocampus means seahorse in Greek.
ī˛ Hippocampus aka cornu ammonis.
ī˛ The term hippocampal formation typically refers to the
dentate gyrus
hippocampus proper (i.e., cornu ammonis)
subicular cortex.
ī˛ Locationī temporal lobe of each cerebral cortex, medial to the
inferior horn of the lateral ventricle.
ī˛ Ammon was an Egyptian god, near whose temple ammonia or the
salt of Ammon was prepared.
ī˛ Ammonâs Horn because the two hippocampi bend around in the
form of the horns of a ram.
16.
17. Fornix
ī˛ fornix is a âCâ shaped tract (in sagittal section).
ī˛ The fornix begins as the bundle of fibers called the alveus.
ī˛ The alveus is white matter consisting of mylinated afferents
and efferents.
ī˛ fibers of the alveus travel posteriorly, they aggregate medially
to form the fimbria of the fornix.
18. ī˛ Fimbria means fringe and in this case it is the fringe of the
hippocampus.
ī˛ The fimbria looks like a thick rubber band.
ī˛ The fimbria of each hippocampus thickens as it moves
posteriorly and eventually splits off from the hippocampus
forming the crua or âlegsâ (singularâcrus) of each
hippocampus.
ī˛ The two crua come together and form the hippocampal
commissure. The hippocampal commissure provides one of
two major paths whereby the hippocampi communicate with
each other
19.
20. ī˛ After the hippocampal commissure the single fiber bundle
isī fornix. The fornix continues in an arc to the anterior
commissure.
ī˛ The anterior commissureī landmarkī fornix splits into three
parts and goes to different structures:
ī˛ 1) Split just before the anterior commissure ī
precommissural fornixī septal nuclei, the ventral striatum, and
the cingulate cortex.
ī˛ 2) Some fibers from the fornixī anterior commissure to the
contralateral hippocampus.
ī˛ 3) Split after the anterior commissureī postcommissural
fornixī mammillary bodies of the hypothalamus and the
anterior nuclei of the thalamus.
22. ī˛ afferents and efferents of the hippocampus are bundled
together in the same paths.
ī˛ Two major pathways into and out of the hippocampus are
the fornix and entorhinal cortex (via the cingulate cortex).
ī˛ The precommissuralī connects to the septal nuclei, preoptic
nuclei, ventral striatum, orbital cortex and anterior
cingulate cortex.
ī˛ The postcommissuralī anterior nucleus of the thalamus and
the mammillary bodies of the hypothalamus.
ī˛ The mammillary bodies are destroyed in Korsakoffâs syndrome
as profound difficulty forming new memoriesī
mammillothalamic tract also goes to the anterior thalamic
nucleus, the hippocampus can affect the thalamus indirectly as
well as directly.
23. ī˛ The anterior thalamic nuclei in turn connect to the cingulate
cortex.
ī˛ The cingulate cortex projects back to the entorhinal cortex of
parahippocampal gyrus, completing a âgreatâ loop called the
Papez circuit.
ī˛ The Papez circuit like many other areas of the limbic system is
involved in learning and memory, emotion, and social behavior.
ī˛ The amygdala, along with neocortical areas, are now known to
be centrally involved in emotional experience.
27. ī˛ The hippocampus has direct connections to the entorhinal
cortex (via the subiculum) and the amygdala
ī˛ The entorhinal cortex projects to the cingulate cortex.
ī˛ hippocampus can affect the cingulate cortex through the
anterior thalamic nucleus or the entorhinal cortex.
ī˛ The cingulate cortex, in turn, projects to the temporal lobe
cortex, orbital cortex, and olfactory bulb.
ī˛ Thus, all of these areas can be influenced by the
hippocampus.
33. ī˛ The hippocampus proper and the dentate gyrus processes
information that passes through the hippocampus.
ī˛ These two structuresī form two interlocking âCs.â
ī˛ The term dentate gyrus ī beaded or toothed ī small blood
vessels from subarachnoid space that penetrate the dentate
gyrus.
ī˛ The hippocampus and dentate gyrus areī cortexī 3-layered
cortex rather than 6-layered cortex as in the neocortex.
34. ī˛ Because of the smaller number of layers and their location
between the neocortex and diencephalon, these cortices have
been called paleocortex/old cortex/archicortexī ancient cortex.
ī˛ Misleadingī false impression that these cortices are
antiquated remnants left over as the brain evolved and
became more complex.
ī˛ Actually continued to develop structurally and functionally
throughout phylogeny.
35. ī˛ The hippocampus and dentate gyrus, like the neocortex,
have a superficial molecular layer and a deep polymorphic
layer.
ī˛ Structures are "inside-out" cortex, the molecular layer is on
the inside and the polymorphic layer is on the outside.
ī˛ Middle layer of the hippocampus properī pyramidal cell
layer.
ī˛ Middle layer of the dentate gyrusī granular layer.
ī˛ Molecular layer of the hippocampus proper faces the
dentate gyrus.
ī˛ The area of the hippocampus proper that is capped by the
dentate gyrus is referred to as CA3 (CA for cornu ammonis).
36. ī˛ The polymorphic layer ī alveus and is equivalent to the
white matter of the neocortex.
ī˛ The subiculum is the transition layer from the hippocampus
to the parahippocampal gyrus and changes gradually from
three to six layers.
ī˛ A major flow of information through the hippocampus is a
one-way circuit.
39. Frontal Lobes of Cortex
ī˛ Provides Rationale Control of emotional disposition & involved
in personality
ī˛ Injury to frontal lobes causes change in personality
ī˛ Control of emotions and impulse control
ī˛ Example of Phineas Gage
40.
41.
42.
43. Pathologies
ī˛ Tumors and injury to areas of the brain lead to
emotional changes.
ī˛ Damage to cingulate cortex lead to emotional
disturbances: fear, depression, irritability
46. Amygdala
ī˛ Neurons at the pole of the temporal lobe below the cortex on
the medial side
ī˛ Greek name for almond shape
ī˛ Has 3 nuclei, basolateral, corticomedial and central
ī˛ Afferents from all lobes of neocortex & hippocampus and
cingulate gyrus
47.
48.
49. Input to Amygdala
ī˛ Basolateral nuclei receive sensory input (visual, gustatory,
auditory and tactile); also projects to cortex for perception of
emotion
ī˛ Corticomedial nuclei receive olfactory inputs
ī˛ Central nuclei contain output neurons to hypothalamus and
periaqueductal grey in brainstem for physiological responses
52. Major Output Pathways
of the Amygdala
ī˛ Ventral amygdalofugal pathway
ī˛ Stria terminalis
ī˛ Directly to the hippocampus
ī˛ Directly to the entorhinal cortex
ī˛ Directly to the dorsomedial nucleus of the thalamus
54. Ventral Amygdalofugal Pathway
ī˛ "fugal" comes from the word fugeâto drive awayâas in
fugitive.
ī˛ Pathway continues ī
anterior olfactory nucleus,
anterior perforated substance,
piriform cortex,
orbitofrontal cortex,
anterior cingulate cortex,
ventral striatum.
55. ī˛ The ventral striatum includes
part of the caudate, putamen, and the
nucleus accumbens septi (nucleus that reclines on the
septum).
ī˛ Projections from the ventral striatum are links in a basal
ganglia circuit that are important in stimulus-response
associative learning.
ī˛ The ventral amygdalofugal pathway also connects to the
hypothalamus and septal nucleus, but the amygdala's major
connection to the hypothalamus and septal nucleus is through
the stria terminalis.
56. Important
ī˛ Linkī motivation and drives, through the limbic
system
ī˛ Linkī responses are learned.
ī˛ Linkī associative learning takes place ī rewards
and punishers.
57. Three simplifications
ī˛ The stria terminalis is similar in form, function, and location as
the fornix for the hippocampal pathway. Thus by way of
analogy one can say that the stria terminalis is to the
amygdala as the fornix is to the hippocampus.
ī˛ The stria terminalis connects only to subcortical structures.
(Connection to cortical structures ī ventral amygdalofugal
pathway.)
ī˛ The stria terminalis overlaps with the ventral amygdalofugal
pathway in that it also connects to the septal nuclei and
hypothalamus and thus forms a loop.
58. Similarities to the fornix
ī˛ Like the fornix, the stria terminalis has
ī˛ Precommissural ī to the septal area exactly
what
the
fornix
does
ī˛ postcommissural branches ī to the hypothalamus
ī˛ postcommissural branch of the fornix projects to mammillary
bodies of the hypothalamus
ī˛ postcommissural branch of the stria terminalis projects to the
59. ī˛ As with the fornix,
ī˛ some fibers enter anterior commissure cross to the
contralateral side.
ī˛ Two hippocampiī anterior commissure
ī˛ two amygdala communicateī anterior commissure.
ī˛ The stria terminalis also projects to the habenula, which is part
of the epithalamus.
60.
61. ī˛ The central nucleus of the amygdala produces
ī˛ autonomic components of emotion ī output pathways to
the lateral hypothalamus and brain stem.
ī˛ conscious perception of emotion primarilyī ventral
amygdalofugal output pathway
to the anterior cingulate cortex
orbitofrontal cortex & prefrontal cortex
62. More on Function of the
Amygdala
ī˛ Stimulationī intense emotion, such as aggression or fear.
ī˛ Irritative lesions of temporal lobe epilepsy have the effect of
stimulating the amygdala.
ī˛ Extreme form irritative lesionsī panic attack.
ī˛ Panic attacks are brief spontaneously recurrent episodes of
terror that generate a sense of impending disaster without a
clearly identifiable cause.
ī˛ PET scansī increase in blood flow to the parahippocampal
gyri, beginning with the right parahippocampal gyrus.
ī˛ During anxiety attacks ī blood flow increases
63. Damage to Amygdala
ī˛ Decreases emotional response
ī˛ Kluver-Bucy Syndrome ī reduced
emotionality
ī˛ Fearlessness
ī˛ Some human cannot recognize emotional
expressions on faces that are fearful, anxious
& angry but recognize happy & disgust
ī˛ Bilateral amygdala removal reduces memory
64. ī˛ Lesions of the amygdalaī Urbach-Wiethe disease
ī˛ calcium is deposited in the amygdala.
ī˛ early in lifeī with bilateral amygdala lesions cannot
discriminate emotion in facial expressions, but their ability to
identify faces remains.
ī˛ The anatomical area for face recognition and memory is in the
multimodal association area of the inferotemporal cortex.
ī˛ This is a good example of how emotion in one area
(amygdala) is linked with perception in another area
(inferotemporal cortex) to create an intense emotionally
charged memory.
66. ī˛ Flatness of affectī Kluver-Bucy syndrome
ī˛ Lesions of the amygdalaī flatness of affect
ī˛ Led to the psychosurgical technique of prefrontal lobotomies.
Remember the movie with Jack Nicholson, âOne Flew Over
the Cuckooâs Nest.â
ī˛ The prefrontal cortex inputs into the amygdala.
ī˛ Input a flatness of affect is producedī desirable in
schizophrenic patients who were aggressively violent or
emotionally agitated.
67. ī˛ amygdala combines many different sensory inputs.
ī˛ Like the hippocampus it combines external and internal stimuli.
ī˛ Integrated with somatosensory and visceral inputsâthis is
where you get your âgut reactionâ.
ī˛ Link between prefrontal cortex, septal area, hypothalamus,
and amygdala likely gives us our gut feelings.
ī˛ It is also where memory and emotions are combined.
ī˛ Reward is particularly sweet ī last a lifetime.
ī˛ Trauma and humiliation of punishmentī remembered for a
long time too.
68. Fear Conditioning:Role of the
Amygdala in Learning
ī˛ Pavlovian conditioning.
ī˛ The crucial aspect of classical conditioning is that it is a
pairing between two stimuli.
ī˛ In fear conditioning, an organism hears a noise or sees a
visual stimulus. A few seconds, later it receives a mild shock.
ī˛ Reactions involve freezing, elevated blood pressure and heart
rate, and it gets twitchyâstartles easily
73. Learned Behaviors
ī˛ Require the amygdala and work through 2 pathways.
Integrate information from all sensory systems and orchestrate
the physiological and psychological response
ī˛ Ventral amygdofugal pathway
ī˛ Stria terminalis
79. MEMORY ENCODING
ī˛ process of laying down a memory begins
with attention (regulated by the thalamus and the frontal
lobe),
ī˛ Emotion tends to increase
attentionī amygdalaī sensations derived from an event
processed
ī˛ The perceived sensationsī decoded in sensory areas of the
cortexī combined in the brainâs hippocampus into one single
experience.
ī˛ Hippocampus ī sorting centre where the new sensations
are compared and associated with previously recorded
onesī long-term memoryī different parts of the brain
ī˛ It is also one of the few areas of the brain where completely
new neurons can grow.
80. MEMORY CONSOLIDATION
ī˛ stabilizing a memory
ī˛ synaptic consolidation (which occurs within the first few
hours after learning or encoding)
ī˛ system consolidation (where hippocampus-dependent
memories become independent of the hippocampus over a
period of weeks to years).
ī˛ Long-term potentiationī allows a synapse to increase in
strength as increasing numbers of signals are transmitted
between the two neurons.
ī˛ Potentiationī synchronous firing of neurons makes
those neurons more inclined to fire together in the future.
81. ī˛ âre-wireâ itself by re-routing connections and re-arranging its
organization.
ī˛ neural network, is traversed over and over again, an enduring
pattern is engraved and neural messages are more likely to
flow along such familiar paths of least resistance.
ī˛ The ability of the connection, or synapse, between
two neurons to change in strength, and for lasting changes to
occur in the efficiency of synaptic transmission, is known
as synaptic plasticity or neural plasticity.
82. MEMORY STORAGE
ī˛ long-term memories ī widely distributed throughout
the cortex.
ī˛ After consolidation, long-term memories are stored throughout
the brain as groups of neurons that are primed to fire together
in the same pattern that created the original experience.
ī˛ Actively reconstructed from elements scattered throughout
various areas of the brain by the encoding process. Memory
storage is therefore an ongoing process of reclassification
resulting from continuous changes in our neural pathways, and
parallel processing of information in our brains.
83. SENSORY MEMORY
ī˛ ultra-short-term memory (200 - 500 milliseconds)
ī˛ ability to retain impressions of sensory information after the
original stimuli have ended
ī˛ ability to look at something and remember what it looked like
with just a second of observation is an example of sensory
memory
ī˛ sensory memory for visual stimuliī iconic memory,
ī˛ memory for aural stimuliī echoic memory
ī˛ Touchī haptic memory.
84. ī˛ Smellī closely linked to memoryī olfactory bulb and
olfactory cortex are physically very close - separated by just 2
or 3 synapses - to the hippocampus and amygdala.
ī˛ Information is passed from the sensory memory into short-term
memory ī process of attentionī effectively filters the stimuli
to only those which are of interest at any given time.
85. SHORT-TERM (WORKING) MEMORY
ī˛ âscratch-padâ for temporary recall of the information which is
being processed at any point in time, and has been referred to
as "the brain's Post-it note"
ī˛ typically from 10 to 15 seconds, or sometimes up to a minute).
ī˛ the beginning of the sentence needs to be held in mind while
the rest is read, a task, which is carried out by the short-term
memory
ī˛ Central executive part of the prefrontal cortexī play a
fundamental role in short-term/working memory.
86. ī˛ Central executive controls two neural loops,
ī˛ one for visual data (near the visual cortex of the brainī visual
scratch pad),
ī˛ one for language (the "phonological loop", which uses Broca's area
as a kind of "inner voice" that repeats word sounds to keep them in
mind).
ī˛ limited capacity-ī George Miller in 1956 ī Memory span is between
5 and 9 (7 Âą 2âmagical numberâ/Miller's Law).
ī˛ spontaneously decaysī 10 - 15 seconds
ī˛ Displacement ī New contentī gradually pushes out older content
87.
88. LONG-TERM MEMORY
ī˛ Short-term memories can become long-term memory through the
process of consolidation
ī˛ Physiologically, the establishment of long-term memory involves a
process of physical changes in the structure of neuronsī long-
term potentiation
ī˛ Whenever something is learned, circuits of neurons in the brain,
known as neural networksī synapses.
ī˛ short-term memory is supported by transient patterns of neuronal
communication in the regions of the frontal, prefrontal and parietal
lobes of the brain.
89. ī˛ long-term memoriesī more stable and permanent changes in
neural connections widely spread throughout the brain.
ī˛ The hippocampusī temporary transit point for long-term
memories, and is not itself used to store information.
ī˛ Essential to the consolidationī short-term to long-term
memory, ī changing neural connections for a period of three
months or more after the initial learning.
90. Taxonomy of Long-term Memory Systems
Squire L, Zola S PNAS 1996;93:13515-13522
Adapted from Squire, Knowlton 1994
91. DECLARATIVE (EXPLICIT) &
PROCEDURAL (IMPLICIT) MEMORY
ī˛ Declarative memory (âknowing whatâ)ī facts and events,
ī consciously recalled (or "declaredâ)
ī˛ Declarative memoryī episodic memory and semantic memory.
ī˛ Procedural memory (âknowing howâ) is the unconscious memory of
skills and how to do things
ī˛ Declarative memories are encoded by ī hippocampus, entorhinal
cortex and perirhinal cortex (medial temporal lobe of the brain)
ī˛ consolidated and stored in the temporal cortex and elsewhere
92. ī˛ semantic memory mainly activates the frontal and temporal
cortexes,
ī˛ episodic memory activity is concentrated in the hippocampus,
at least initially.
ī˛ Once processed in the hippocampus, episodic memories are
then consolidated and stored in the neocortex.
ī˛ The memories of the different elements of a particular event
are distributed in the various visual, olfactory and auditory
areas of the brain, but they are all connected together by
the hippocampus to form an episode, rather than remaining a
collection of separate memories.
93. ī˛ Procedural memoriesī do not appear to involve the
hippocampus at all
ī˛ Encoded and stored by the cerebellum, putamen, caudate
nucleus and the motor cortex, all of which are involved in
motor control.
ī˛ Learned skills such as riding a bike are stored in the putamen;
ī˛ Instinctive actions such as grooming are stored in the caudate
nucleus;
ī˛ cerebellum is involved with timing and coordination of body
skills.
ī˛ Without the medial temporal lobeī person is still able to form
new procedural memories (such as playing the piano), but
cannot remember the events during which they happened or
were learned.
94. Hippocampus &
Relational Memory
ī˛ Highly processed information from association cortex
areas enter hippocampus
ī˛ Hippocampus integrates themâties them together
and then output is stored in other cortical areas
ī˛ Allows you to retrieve all the information about an
event
96. Amnesia
ī˛ Anterograde
ī˛ Cannot form any new types of memories so always live
at time of injury
ī˛ Retrograde
ī˛ Cannot recall stored memories for a specific time
period
97. HM
ī˛ Had bilateral mediotemporal lobes removed due to
epilepsy
ī˛ Removed amygdala, anterior 2/3 of hippocampus,
temporal cortex
ī˛ Had anterograde amnesia
ī˛ Studied by Brenda Milner
ī˛ Could learn by procedural memory but had no
recollection of having learned task
98.
99. Squire & Mishkin
ī˛ Neuroscientists create an animal model for
HM symptoms
ī˛ Lesioned amygdala, hippocampus and
perirhinal cortex in temporal lobe of monkeys
and found that they could no longer perform in
recognition memory tests
ī˛ Later showed that perirhinal cortex is most
important for new memory; temporary
storage? Memory consolidation?
103. Dorsal medial thalamic
nucleus
ī˛ Receives input from temporal lobe structures including
amygdala & inferiortemporal cortex
ī˛ Projects to all frontal cortex areas
104. NA
ī˛ Air Force technician injured by fencing foil âpenetrated
the dorsalmedial thalamus
ī˛ Developed retrograde amnesia of previous 2 years
and severe anterograde amnesia
ī˛ Supports role of thalamus in memory
105.
106. Lashley
ī˛ Lashley: 1920s studied rats in maze after cortical
lesions
ī˛ Found that all cortical areas are involved in memory
107.
108. Hebb, Lashley student
ī˛ suggested CELL ASSEMBLY = all cells that respond
to an external stimulus & are reciprocally
interconnected
ī˛ Neurons that fire together, wire together
ī˛ 1949 Organization of Behavior
ī˛ Sensory cortex also stores memory
ī˛ Led to neural networks computer modeling
109.
110. Circuit using limbic
structures
ī˛ Hippocampal output axons travel as a bundle, the
fornix, to the mammillary bodies of the hypothalamus
ī˛ Mammillary body axons project to anterior thalamic
nucleus
111. Memory based on Vision
ī˛ Should be found in cortical area involved in vision
processing
ī˛ inferiortemporal cortex: higher order processing of
visual informationâstores memory of previously seen
objects
ī˛ Allows recognition of visual objects
ī˛ Remember Kluver-Bucy pyschic blind monkeys
112.
113. Penfield
ī˛ Neurosurgeon in the 1950âs removed epileptic foci
after stimulation
ī˛ Found that stimulation of temporal lobe in awake
patients caused halucinations or memory retrieval
118. LIMBIC SYSTEM - CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS
TEMPORAL LOBE EPILEPSY
