Environmental enrichment attenuates cue-induced reinstatement of sucrose seeking in rats.
This study examined the effect of environmental enrichment on sucrose seeking in rats made abstinent from sucrose for 1 month, as measured by response for a tone+light cue previously associated with 10% sucrose self-administration. Rats were either enriched throughout the study (experiment 1) or only after sucrose self-administration training (experiment 2). Enrichment consisted of either housi...
متن کاملEnvironmental enrichment reduces the mnemonic and neural benefits of estrogen.
The degree to which memory is enhanced by estrogen replacement in postmenopausal women may depend on environmental factors such as education. The present study utilized an animal model of environmental enrichment to determine whether environmental factors influence the mnemonic and neural response to estrogen. Female mice were raised in standard (SC) or enriched (EC) conditions from weaning unt...
متن کاملEnvironmental Enrichment Reduces Signs of Boredom in Caged Mink
Animals housed in impoverished cages are often labelled 'bored'. They have also been called 'apathetic' or 'depressed', particularly when profoundly inactive. However, these terms are rarely operationally defined and validated. As a negative state caused by under-stimulation, boredom should increase interest in stimuli of all kinds. Apathy (lack of interest), by contrast, should manifest as dec...
متن کاملMaternal presence and environmental enrichment affect food neophobia of piglets.
Young omnivores show food neophobia in order to avoid the potential harmful effects of ingesting unfamiliar food items. We investigated whether the presence of the mother and an enriched rearing environment would reduce food neophobia in piglets. A mother may provide information on suitable food types to include in the diet, whereas an enriched environment may stimulate behavioural development ...
متن کاملIntrahypothalamic paraventricular nucleus-microinjected SKF 38393, D1 receptor agonist, reduces food intake in 24 hours food-deprived rats
Introduction: Dopamine plays an important role in the central nervous system for modulating food intake. Dopamine receptors are distributed within the hypothalamus, and expression of D1 receptors is significant in hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN). Therefore, the aim of this study was to find if PVN-microinjected SKF38393, D1 receptor agonist, may modulate food intake. Methods: Gui...
