Journal ArticleDOI

Differential contributions of de novo and maintenance DNA methyltransferases to object memory processing in the rat hippocampus and perirhinal cortex – a double dissociation

TL;DR: Results reinforce the established functional double dissociation between the HPC and PRh and imply the operation of different epigenetic mechanisms in brain regions dedicated to long‐term memory processing for different types of information.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cholinergic manipulations bidirectionally regulate object memory destabilization.

TL;DR: The effects of cholinergic manipulations in rats using an object recognition paradigm that requires reactivation novelty to destabilize object memories suggest a hitherto unappreciated mnemonic role for ACh with implications for its potential involvement in cognitive flexibility and the dynamic process of long-term memory storage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissociable involvement of estrogen receptors in perirhinal cortex-mediated object-place memory in male rats.

TL;DR: Assessment of the role of 17-βestradiol (E2), ERα, ERβ, GPER, and their downstream signaling pathways, in PRh-mediated object-in-place (OiP) memory in gonadally-intact male rats reveals interesting dissociations between the roles of various ERs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissociable roles for histone acetyltransferases p300 and PCAF in hippocampus and perirhinal cortex-mediated object memory.

TL;DR: Results demonstrate, for the first time, the necessity of histone acetyltransferase activity for PRh‐mediated object memory and indicate that the specific mnemonic roles of distinctive histoneacetyltransferases can be dissociated according to specific brain regions and memory timeframe.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of cortical M 1 muscarinic receptors and related intracellular signaling is necessary for reactivation-induced object memory updating

TL;DR: A hitherto unacknowledged cognitive function for acetylcholine is demonstrated with important implications for understanding the dynamic nature of long-term memory storage in the normal and aging brain.
