Behavioral memory induced by stimulation of the nucleus basalis: effects of contingency reversal.
Specific behavioral associative memory induced by stimulation of the cortically-projecting cholinergic nucleus basalis (NB) is dependent on intrinsic acetylcholine and shares with natural memory such features as associativity, specificity, rapid formation, consolidation and long-term retention. Herein, we examined extinction and the effects of stimulus pre-exposure. Two groups of adult male rat...
متن کاملEffects of exercise on spatial memory deficits induced by nucleus basalis magnocellularis lesions
Introduction: Previous studies have shown that exercise enhances cognitive and functional capacities in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this study, we investigated the effect of long-term (60 days) and short- term (10 days) exercise on the spatial memory deficits in an animal model of AD. Methods: Fifty male rats were divided into 5 groups 1) intact, 2) sham, 3) sham-Alzheimer 4) ...
متن کاملRapid induction of specific associative behavioral memory by stimulation of the nucleus basalis in the rat.
Hypothesized circuitry enabling behavioral memory formation can be tested by its direct activation in the absence of normal experience. Neuromodulation via the cortical release of acetylcholine by the nucleus basalis (NB) is hypothesized to be sufficient to induce specific, associative behavioral memory. Previously, we found that tone paired with stimulation of the nucleus basalis (NBs) for 300...
متن کاملInduction of behavioral associative memory by stimulation of the nucleus basalis.
The nucleus basalis (NB) has been implicated in memory formation indirectly, by lesions, pharmacological manipulations, and neural correlates of learning. Prior findings imply that engagement of the NB during learning promotes memory storage. We directly tested this NB-memory hypothesis by determining whether stimulation of the NB induces behavioral associative memory. Rats were trained either ...
متن کاملMotivationally neutral stimulation of the nucleus basalis induces specific behavioral memory.
The cholinergic system has been implicated in learning and memory. The nucleus basalis (NB) provides acetylcholine (ACh) to the cerebral cortex. Pairing a tone with NB stimulation (NBstm) to alter cortical state induces both associative specific tuning plasticity in the primary auditory cortex (A1) and associative specific auditory behavioral memory. NB-induced memory has major features of natu...
