Journal ArticleDOI
Orbitofrontal lesions impair use of cue-outcome associations in a devaluation task.
TL;DR: Results indicate that the orbitofrontal cortex is critical for the maintenance of information about the current incentive value of reinforcers or the use of that information to guide behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial memory is related to hippocampal subcellular concentrations of calcium-dependent protein kinase C isoforms in young and aged rats
TL;DR: Relationships between spatial learning and hippocampal concentrations of calcium-dependent PKC are isoform-specific and age-related spatial memory impairment is associated with altered subcellular concentrations of PKCgamma and may be indicative of deficient signal transduction and neuronal plasticity in the hippocampus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple unit activity recorded from amygdala central nucleus during Pavlovian heart rate conditioning in rabbit
TL;DR: A direct role for the central nucleus in the expression of conditioned heart rate responding in rabbit is suggested, and short latency increases in the multiple unit activity of the amygdala central nucleus were observed in response to a tone conditioned stimulus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disconnection of the basolateral amygdala complex and nucleus accumbens impairs appetitive Pavlovian second-order conditioned responses.
TL;DR: The results suggest that the ABL and accumbens are part of a system critical for processing information about learned motivational value.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this analysis the activity of ChAT in the basal forebrain and striatum appeared to be the best predictors of spatial learning impairment.
