Journal ArticleDOI
Chromatin acetylation, memory, and LTP are impaired in CBP+/- mice: a model for the cognitive deficit in Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome and its amelioration.
Juan Marcos Alarcon,Gaël Malleret,Khalid Touzani,Svetlana Vronskaya,Shunsuke Ishii,Eric R. Kandel,Eric R. Kandel,Angel Barco +7 more
TL;DR: Some of the cognitive and physiological deficits observed on RTS are not simply due to the reduction of CBP during development but may also result from the continued requirement throughout life for both the CREB co-activation and the histone acetylation function of CBp.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Role in Learning for SRF: Deletion in the Adult Forebrain Disrupts LTD and the Formation of an Immediate Memory of a Novel Context
Amit Etkin,Juan Marcos Alarcon,Stuart P. Weisberg,Khalid Touzani,Yan You Huang,Alfred Nordheim,Eric R. Kandel +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that for the hippocampus to form associative spatial memories through LTP-like processes, it must first undergo learning of the context per se through exploration and the learning of familiarity, which requires LTD- like processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of olfaction in the conditioned sucrose preference of sweet-ageusic T1R3 knockout mice.
TL;DR: Results indicate that olfaction plays a critical role in the conditioned preference of T1R3 KO mice for dilute sugar solutions, and the fact that OBx-KO mice preferred concentrated sucrose solutions in the absence of normal sweet taste and olfactory sensations underscores the potency of postoral nutritive signals in promoting ingestion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Area postrema lesions impair flavor-toxin aversion learning but not flavor-nutrient preference learning.
Khalid Touzani,Anthony Sclafani +1 more
TL;DR: Findings confirm the important role of the area postrema in Flavor-toxin learning but provide no evidence for its involvement in flavor-nutrient conditioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ghrelin signaling is not essential for sugar or fat conditioned flavor preferences in mice.
TL;DR: Ghrelin receptor signaling is not required for flavor preferences conditioned by the oral or post-oral actions of sugar and fat, which contrasts with other findings implicating ghrelin signaling in food reward processing and food-conditioned place preferences.
