In the human brain, the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) is the frontal part of the cingulate cortex that resembles a "collar" surrounding the frontal part of the corpus callosum. It consists of Brodmann areas 24, 32, and 33.

The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) is an enigmatic structure located on the medial wall of the cerebral cortex. It is associated with executive control, learning, adjustment, economic choice, and self-control ( Heilbronner & Hayden, 2016 ; Morecraft et al., 2012 ; Paus, 2001 ; …

We summarize the strengths and weaknesses of the three major approaches to characterizing the dACC: as a monitor, as a controller, and as an economic structure. We argue that neurons in the dACC are specialized for representing contexts, or task-state variables relevant for behavior, and strategies, or aspects of future plans.

2011年4月1日 · The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) lies in a unique position in the brain, with connections to both the “emotional” limbic system and the “cognitive” prefrontal cortex. Thus, the ACC likely has an important role in integration of neuronal circuitry for affect regulation and can be identified as a distinctive region in understanding ...

2012年6月24日 · The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) plays an important part in regulating cognitive control in both humans and non-human primates, but its precise function remains a matter of debate.

2023年8月20日 · 在本文中，研究者概述了dmPFC/dACC的解剖结构，总结了与该脑区相关的功能的最新进展，并提出了解释dmPFC/dCC功能的主要理论。 本文探讨了不同理论之间的共性和争论。 最后，阐述了这些争论对未来研究dmPFC/dACC和其他脑区功能的启示。 前言. 背内侧前额叶皮层 (dmPFC)和背侧前扣带皮层 (dACC)之间的脑区是近二十年来许多研究的焦点。 该脑区大致对应于功能性神经成像研究中常见的一组活动 (图1C)。 它反映了一组受试者的平均大脑活动，并 …

2016年9月27日 · Nature Neuroscience - The authors propose that dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) performs a cost/benefit analysis to specify how best to allocate cognitive control. They describe why this...

The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC), which lies on the medial surface of the frontal lobes, plays an important role in regulating cognitive control. Hypotheses regarding its function include guiding reward-based decision making 1 , monitoring for conflict between competing responses 2 , and predicting task difficulty 3 .

2023年8月2日 · A brain region located between the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) and the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) has been the focus of many studies in the past two decades. This brain area roughly corresponds to a cluster of activity commonly observed in functional neuroimaging studies ( Fig. 1C ).

The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex is activated during tasks that involve awareness, attention, and behavioral engagement and are associated with an increase in sympathetic drive.
