TI  - Specific role of medial prefrontal cortex in retrieving recent autobiographical 
      memories: an fMRI study of young female subjects.

AB  - Episodic-autobiographical memory (AM) is characterized by self-conscious 
      reflection, emotional connotation and mental time travel. Semantic memory (SM) 
      contains context and emotion free general knowledge. The present study 
      specifically aimed at exploring the effect of time on the neural substrates of 
      autobiographical and semantic memory retrieval by studying memories from 
      different life periods in young female participants using functional brain 
      imaging. Recent compared to early childhood events activated retrosplenial 
      cortex. More importantly, medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) was specifically 
      engaged in the retrieval of recent AMs. The data show time-modulated neural 
      substrates during recent and remote memories in women and suggest that a specific 
      MPFC activation underlies the autonoetic, emotional and self-related character of 
      recent AMs.
