Journal ArticleDOI
Retrograde amnesia and hippocampal stimulation: dependence upon the nature of associations formed during conditioning.
TL;DR: The data suggest that the effects of postconditioning hippocampal stimulation on retention depend upon the nature of the associative learning processes which occur during conditioning and which are dictated by the procedural details of the conditioning paradigm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Treatment with levetiracetam improves cognition in a ketamine rat model of schizophrenia
TL;DR: Levetiracetam was effective in attenuating amphetamine-induced augmentation of locomotor activity, compatible with the need for therapeutic treatment of positive symptoms in schizophrenia, and remained effective when administered concurrently with risperidone, supporting potential viability of adjunctive therapy with levetir acetam to treat cognitive deficits in schizophrenia patients under concurrent antipsychotic therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age-related spatial learning impairment is unrelated to spinophilin immunoreactive spine number and protein levels in rat hippocampus.
Michael E. Calhoun,Bonnie R. Fletcher,Stella S. Yi,Diana C. Zentko,Michela Gallagher,Peter R. Rapp +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that a substantial loss of dendritic spines and spinophilin protein in the hippocampus are unlikely to contribute to age-related impairment in spatial learning, and current evidence on synaptic integrity in the aged brain is extended.
Journal ArticleDOI
Issues in the development of models for cognitive aging across primate and nonprimate species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Basal forebrain neuronal inhibition enables rapid behavioral stopping
Jeffrey D. Mayse,Jeffrey D. Mayse,Geoffrey M. Nelson,Irene Avila,Michela Gallagher,Shih Chieh Lin +5 more
TL;DR: Results reveal a previously unknown subcortical mechanism of rapid inhibitory control by the BF, which provides bidirectional control over the speed of response generation and inhibition.
