Journal ArticleDOI
Involvement of the Prelimbic–Infralimbic Areas of the Rodent Prefrontal Cortex in Behavioral Flexibility for Place and Response Learning
TL;DR: Overall, the results suggest that the prelimbic–infralimbic areas are important for behavioral flexibility involving cross-modal but not intramodal shifts.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Contribution of the Medial Prefrontal Cortex, Orbitofrontal Cortex, and Dorsomedial Striatum to Behavioral Flexibility
TL;DR: The results suggest that orbitofrontal and prelimbic subregions differentially contribute to behavioral flexibility, but they are both critical for the initial inhibition of a previously learned strategy, while the dorsomedial striatum plays a broader role in behavioral flexibility and supports a process that allows the reliable execution of a new strategy once selected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hippocampal acetylcholine release during memory testing in rats: augmentation by glucose
TL;DR: The findings suggest that glucose may enhance memory by directly or indirectly increasing the release of ACh, and indicate that hippocampal ACh release is increased in rats performing a spatial task.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of the dorsomedial striatum in behavioral flexibility for response and visual cue discrimination learning.
TL;DR: Findings contrast with findings indicating that prelimbic inactivation impairs behavioral flexibility due to perseveration of a previously learned strategy, but each region may contribute to distinct processes that facilitate strategy switching.
Journal ArticleDOI
Involvement of rodent prefrontal cortex subregions in strategy switching.
TL;DR: Inactivation of the prelimbic-infralimbic areas, but not the dorsal anterior cingulate area, impaired learning when rats were switched from one version to the other in the cheeseboard task.
