The VPAC2 Receptor Is Essential for Circadian Function in the Mouse Suprachiasmatic Nuclei
Anthony J. Harmar,Hugh M. Marston,Sanbing Shen,Christopher Spratt,Katrine West,Katrine West,W. John Sheward,Christine F. Morrison,Julia R. Dorin,Hugh D. Piggins,Jean Claude Reubi,John S. Kelly,Elizabeth S. Maywood,Michael H. Hastings +13 more
TL;DR: Mice carrying a null mutation of the VPAC(2) receptor for VIP and PACAP (Vipr2(-/-)) are incapable of sustaining normal circadian rhythms of rest/activity behavior and the role of intercellular neuropeptidergic signaling in maintenance of circadian function within the SCN is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using the MATRICS to guide development of a preclinical cognitive test battery for research in schizophrenia.
TL;DR: There is a need for a "preclinical MATRICS" to develop a rodent test battery that is appropriate for drug development and outline an approach for translational research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impaired attention is central to the cognitive deficits observed in alpha 7 deficient mice.
Jared W. Young,Nicola Crawford,John S. Kelly,Lorraine E. Kerr,Hugh M. Marston,Christopher Spratt,Keith Finlayson,John Sharkey +7 more
TL;DR: These studies intimate that the attentional impairment in alpha7-nAChR transgenic mice maybe core to other deficits in cognition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nicotine improves sustained attention in mice: evidence for involvement of the alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.
Jared W. Young,Keith Finlayson,Christopher Spratt,Hugh M. Marston,Hugh M. Marston,Nicola Crawford,John S. Kelly,John Sharkey +7 more
TL;DR: By increasing the level of task difficulty, the performance of mice was maintained at sufficiently low levels to allow a demonstrable improvement in performance upon nicotine administration, as α7 KO mice are clearly impaired in the acquisition and asymptotic performance of this task, the α7 nAChR may be involved in mediating these effects of nicotine.
Journal ArticleDOI
The 5-Choice Continuous Performance Test: Evidence for a Translational Test of Vigilance for Mice
TL;DR: The 5C-CPT is demonstrated as a measure of vigilance that is analogous to human CPT studies, and increased RTs with increased attentional load are observed, consistent with human performance in simple RT, choice RT, and CPT tasks.
