Reconsolidation and extinction of an appetitive pavlovian memory.
When memories are retrieved, they can enter a labile state during which the memory may be modified and subsequently restabilized through the process of reconsolidation. However, this does not occur in all situations, and certain "boundary conditions" determine whether a memory will undergo reconsolidation. Naïve male lister hooded rats were trained for 5 days to press a lever in order to retrie...
متن کاملEffects of left prefrontal transcranial direct current stimulation on the acquisition of contextual and cued fear memory
Objective(s): Behavioral and neuroimaging studies have shown that transcranial direct current stimulation, as a non-invasive neuromodulatory technique, beyond regional effects can modify functionally interconnected remote cortical and subcortical areas. In this study, we hypothesized that the induced changes in cortical excitability following the application of cathodal or anodal tDCS over the ...
متن کاملThe hippocampus and contextual memory retrieval in Pavlovian conditioning.
Several theories of hippocampal function have suggested a role for the hippocampus in contextual memory retrieval. However, these theories are based on studies using permanent pretraining lesions, which confound the role of the hippocampus in learning with its role in retrieval. We argue that an alternative methodology is required to assess the role of the hippocampus in memory retrieval proces...
متن کاملExtinction during reconsolidation of threat memory diminishes prefrontal cortex involvement.
Controlling learned defensive responses through extinction does not alter the threat memory itself, but rather regulates its expression via inhibitory influence of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) over amygdala. Individual differences in amygdala-PFC circuitry function have been linked to trait anxiety and posttraumatic stress disorder. This finding suggests that exposure-based techniques may actual...
متن کاملImpaired cued and contextual memory in NPAS2-deficient mice.
Neuronal PAS domain protein 2 (NPAS2) is a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) PAS domain transcription factor expressed in multiple regions of the vertebrate brain. Targeted insertion of a beta-galactosidase reporter gene (lacZ) resulted in the production of an NPAS2-lacZ fusion protein and an altered form of NPAS2 lacking the bHLH domain. The neuroanatomical expression pattern of NPAS2-lacZ was tem...
