Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of cortical acetylcholine release and cognitive performance by histamine H3 receptor activation in rats

TL;DR: These observations provide the first evidence of a regulatory role of histamine H3 receptors on cortical acetylcholine release in vivo and suggest a role for histamine in learning and memory and may have implications for the treatment of degenerative disorders associated with impaired cholinergic function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lesions of cholinergic forebrain nuclei: changes in avoidance behavior and scopolamine actions.
TL;DR: The results show therefore that MFN lesions impair the cortical cholinergic mechanisms, whose activity seems to play an important role in cognitive functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aniracetam restores object recognition impaired by age, scopolamine, and nucleus basalis lesions.
TL;DR: In the rat, object discrimination appears to depend on the integrity of the cholinergic system, and nootropic drugs can correct its disruption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential effects of amyloid peptides β-(1-40) and β-(25-35) injections into the rat nucleus basalis
TL;DR: Rats with lesions induced by β-peptides may be a useful animal model of amyloid deposition for investigation of the pathogenetic mechanisms leading to Alzheimer's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cognitive impairment and chronic cerebral hypoperfusion: what can be learned from experimental models
TL;DR: An experimental model of bilateral common carotid artery occlusion in the rat modified with respect to previous papers regarding both the surgical procedure and the neurocognitive evaluation that is focused on cognitive domains depending on subcortical-frontal circuits is proposed.
