Aging disrupts the link between network centrality and functional properties of prefrontal neurons during memory-guided behavior by Yadollah Ranjbar-Slamloo, Huee Ru Chong, Tsukasa Kamigaki

“…Abstract The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is vital for higher cognitive functions and displays neuronal heterogeneity, with neuronal activity varying significantly across individual neurons. Using calcium imaging in the medial PFC (mPFC) of mice, we investigate whether differences in degree centrality—a measure of connectivity strength within local circuits—could explain this neuronal diversity and its functional implications. …”
