Also, ectopic production of prolactin can be found in tumors such as renal cell, liver, and uterine fibroids. Elevated TRH, which acts as an enhancer of prolactin release. TSH is the most sensitive method to evaluate for hypothyroidism.
Wernicke's Area (Orange). Psychology. Wernicke's area is the region of the brain that is important for language development. The Wernicke's area is located in the temporal lobe on the left side of the brain and is responsible for the comprehension of speech (Broca's area is related to the production of speech). Language development or usage can be seriously impaired by damage to this area of the brain.
MOCA FAQ... It has been suggested that Brocaâs and Wernickeâs areas are unique to humans. Brocaâs and Wernickeâs areas are cortical areas specialized for production and comprehension, respectively, of human language. Brocaâs area is found in the left inferior frontal gyrus and Wernickeâs area is located in the left posterior superior temporal gyrus. Non-human primates (both apes and monkeys) possess cortical areas that are in similar locations to and have similar cytoarchitecture as Wernickeâs and Brocaâs areas in humans, and are probably homologous to them. The putative macaque homologue of Brocaâs area, known as area 44 or area F5, shares functional properties with human Brocaâs area.
