memory is the cognitive ability that allows acquiring, store and recalling information. anterior thalamic dysfunction creates memory deficits in rats and humans. anterior thalamus forms a memory network in connection with the hippocampus. this connectivity profile proposes that ventrolateral and anterior thalamus may display a nexus between reminder and control functions, such as action or atte...

Lectins are a group of proteins of non-immune origin that recognize and bind to carbohydrates without modifying them. Banana is the common name for both herbaceous plants of the genus Musa and for the fruit they produce. They are indeed a promising source for many medicinal applications. Banana lectins have the potential for inhibiting HIV-1 reverse transcriptase activity, suppressing cancer ce...

It is an almost universally accepted claim that the list-method procedure of inducing directed forgetting does not affect recognition. However, previous studies have omitted a critical comparison in reaching this conclusion. This article reports evidence that recognition of material learned after cue presentation is superior for conditions in which the material that preceded cue presentation wa...

The mouse T-lymphoma (S-49) cell line is useful for individ ually studying RNAand DNA-directed effects of 5-fluoropyrimidines. On the basis of their metabolic activation, biochem ical effects on pyrimidine nucleotide metabolism, and biological toxicity, we have established that incubation of S-49 cells with 5-fluorodeoxyuridine produces only DNA-directed toxicity (thymidylate synthetase inhibit...
