Detailed explanation-1: -The anterior cingulate cortex is responsible for a host of cognitive functions, including emotional expression, attention allocation, and mood regulation.
Detailed explanation-2: -The cingulate gyrus is an arch-shaped convolution situated just above the corpus callosum. The frontal portion is termed the anterior cingulate gyrus (or cortex). A component of the limbic system, it is involved in processing emotions and behavior regulation. It also helps to regulate autonomic motor function.
Detailed explanation-3: -The posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), located at the back of the cingulate cortex is regarded as part of the default mode network (DMN) and is active in the recall of autobiographical memory, emotional stimuli, and the regulation of internal/external attention.
Detailed explanation-4: -One of the brain regions that is highly associated with anxiety is the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). Malfunctioning of the ACC was associated with hyperactivity of the amygdala, a hub brain region for fear processing, in patients with anxiety disorders [15, 16].
