Effects of DSP4 and methylphenidate on spatial memory performance in rats
In this experiment, we have investigated the spatial memory performance of rats following a central noradrenaline depletion induced by three different doses of the neurotoxin N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-ethyl-2-bromobenzylamine (DSP4) and following administration of three different doses of methylphenidate (MPH). The rats were required to find food pellets hidden on a holeboard. The sole administration...
متن کاملThe effects of the neurotoxin DSP4 on spatial learning and memory in Wistar rats
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of DSP4-induced noradrenaline depletion on learning and memory in a spatial memory paradigm (holeboard). Since Harro et al. Brain Res 976:209-216 (2003) have demonstrated that short-term effects of DSP4 administration include both noradrenaline depletion and changes in dopamine and its metabolites-with the latter vanishing within 4 week...
متن کاملDevelopmental mechanisms channeling cortical evolution.
Increase in the area and neuron number of the cerebral cortex over evolutionary time systematically changes its computational properties. One of the fundamental developmental mechanisms generating the cortex is a conserved rostrocaudal gradient in duration of neuron production, coupled with distinct asymmetries in the patterns of axon extension and synaptogenesis on the same axis. A small set o...
متن کاملDevelopmental determinants of cortical plasticity.
A central problem in neuropsychology concerns the mechanisms by which functions are restored following injury to the brain. Functional recovery is particularly striking following damage to the cerebrum in early life and accordingly our studies deal with the effects of prefrontal cortical lesions performed on infant monkeys. We describe here two essentially different patterns of behavioral recov...
متن کاملGenetic Feedback Regulation of Frontal Cortical Neuronal Ensembles Through Activity-Dependent Arc Expression and Dopaminergic Input
Mental functions involve coordinated activities of specific neuronal ensembles that are embedded in complex brain circuits. Aberrant neuronal ensemble dynamics is thought to form the neurobiological basis of mental disorders. A major challenge in mental health research is to identify these cellular ensembles and determine what molecular mechanisms constrain their emergence and consolidation dur...
