TLDR
Behavioural results showed a single injection of LPS impaired escape latency in both the acquisition and retention phases of the study, whereas a daily injection ofLPS did not significantly impair acquisition or retention.

Inflammatory Blockade Restores Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis

TL;DR: It is shown that neuroinflammation alone inhibits neurogenesis and that inflammatory blockade with indomethacin, a common nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, restores neuroGenesis after endotoxin-induced inflammation and augments neurogenescence after cranial irradiation.

Long-Term Potentiation and Memory

TL;DR: Lynch et al. as mentioned in this paper identified the cellular and molecu... cellular and memory cells in neuroscience is one of the most significant challenges in neuroscience and identified the most important genes for long-term potentiation and memory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immune modulation of learning, memory, neural plasticity and neurogenesis

TL;DR: These effects are mediated by inflammation-induced neuronal hyper-excitability and adrenocortical stimulation, followed by reduced production of neurotrophins and other plasticity-related molecules, facilitating many forms of neuropathology associated with normal aging as well as neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases.

Neuro-inflammation induced by lipopolysaccharide causes cognitive impairment through enhancement of beta-amyloid generation

TL;DR: This study suggests that neuro-inflammatory reaction could contribute to AD pathology, and anti-inflammatory agent could be useful for the prevention of AD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroinflammation induced by lipopolysaccharide causes cognitive impairment in mice

TL;DR: The data suggest that LPS induced cognitive impairment and neuroinflammation via microglia activation by activating the NF-kB signaling pathway; furthermore, the time points, doses, methods and outcomes of LPS administration between intraperitoneal and intracerebroventricular injections are compared.

A synaptic model of memory: long-term potentiation in the hippocampus

TL;DR: The best understood form of long-term potentiation is induced by the activation of the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor complex, which allows electrical events at the postsynaptic membrane to be transduced into chemical signals which, in turn, are thought to activate both pre- and post Synaptic mechanisms to generate a persistent increase in synaptic strength.

Long-lasting potentiation of synaptic transmission in the dentate area of the anaesthetized rabbit following stimulation of the perforant path.

TL;DR: The after‐effects of repetitive stimulation of the perforant path fibres to the dentate area of the hippocampal formation have been examined with extracellular micro‐electrodes in rabbits anaesthetized with urethane.

Memory and the hippocampus: A synthesis from findings with rats, monkeys, and humans.

TL;DR: The role of the hippocampus is considered, which is needed temporarily to bind together distributed sites in neocortex that together represent a whole memory.

Selective impairment of learning and blockade of long-term potentiation by an N -methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist, AP5

TL;DR: This article showed that chronic intraventricular infusion of D,L-AP5 causes a selective impairment of place learning, which is highly sensitive to hippocampal damage, without affecting visual discrimination learning.

Synaptic plasticity and memory: an evaluation of the hypothesis

TL;DR: It is concluded that a wealth of data support the notion that synaptic plasticity is necessary for learning and memory, but that little data currently supports the notion of sufficiency.
