Journal ArticleDOI

Sleep, Plasticity and Memory from Molecules to Whole-Brain Networks

TL;DR: Cross-descriptive level findings demonstrate that the unique neurobiology of sleep exerts powerful effects on molecular, cellular and network mechanisms of plasticity that govern both initial learning and subsequent long-term memory consolidation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sleep deprivation impairs cAMP signalling in the hippocampus

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that brief sleep deprivation disrupts hippocampal function by interfering with cAMP signalling through increased PDE4 activity, and drugs that enhance camp signalling may provide a new therapeutic approach to counteract the cognitive effects of sleep deprivation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sleep deprivation and hippocampal vulnerability: Changes in neuronal plasticity, neurogenesis and cognitive function

TL;DR: By impairing hippocampal plasticity and function, chronically restricted and disrupted sleep contributes to cognitive disorders and psychiatric diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exercise improves memory acquisition and retrieval in the Y-maze task: relationship with hippocampal neurogenesis.

TL;DR: The authors show that 14 days of wheel running promotes memory acquisition, memory retention, and reversal learning, and that a decrease in neurogenesis might be a prerequisite for optimal memory retrieval.
Journal ArticleDOI

Post-training reversible inactivation of the hippocampus enhances novel object recognition memory.

TL;DR: It is found that the inactivation of the dorsal hippocampus after training impairs object-place recognition memory but enhances novel object recognition (NOR) memory, and activity in the hippocampus can interfere with the consolidation of object recognition memory when object information encoding occurs in an unfamiliar environment.
