Differential effects of fornix and caudate nucleus lesions on two radial maze tasks: evidence for multiple memory systems

MG Packard, R Hirsh, NM White - Journal of Neuroscience, 1989 - Soc Neuroscience
The present experiments were designed to examine the hypothesis that the mammalian
brain contains anatomically distinct memory systems. Rats with bilateral lesions of caudate …

Lesions of the caudate nucleus selectively impair “reference memory” acquisition in the radial maze

MG Packard, NM White - Behavioral and neural biology, 1990 - Elsevier
Groups of Long—Evans rats with bilateral lesions of the caudate nucleus, sham lesions, or
no lesions were given one trial per day in an eight-arm radial maze. The same four maze …

Double dissociation of fornix and caudate nucleus lesions on acquisition of two water maze tasks: further evidence for multiple memory systems.

MG Packard, JL McGaugh - Behavioral neuroscience, 1992 - psycnet.apa.org
Examined the effect of lesions of the caudate nucleus or fimbria-fornix on the acquisition of 2
water maze tasks. In both tasks, 2 rubber balls with different visual patterns were used as …

Spatial memory deficit following fimbria-fornix lesions: independent of time for stimulus processing

JA Walker, DS Olton - Physiology & behavior, 1979 - Elsevier
The present experiment examined the possible role of stimulus processing time in the
spatial memory deficit found following fimbria-fornix lesions in rats. Rats were trained …

A comparative analysis of the role of fornix and cingulate cortex in memory: rats

AL Markowska, DS Olton, EA Murray… - Experimental Brain …, 1989 - Springer
In order to compare the role of the fornix (FX) and cingulate cortex (CC) in memory, rats were
trained in a series of discriminations using procedures that were the same as those used for …

Spatial memory and hippocampal function

DS Olton, BC Paras - Neuropsychologia, 1979 - Elsevier
Rats with damage to the fimbria-fornix were tested for the post-operative retention of a
preoperatively learned discrimination on a radial arm maze. The maze contained two sets of …

Hippocampal function required for nonspatial working memory

DS Olton, WA Feustle - Experimental Brain Research, 1981 - Springer
The hippocampus has been implicated as a brain structure necessary for normal memory
functions and normal spatial behavior. Both these explanations are consistent with the …

Hippocampal function and behavior: Spatial discrimination and response inhibition

DS Olton, MA Werz - Physiology & Behavior, 1978 - Elsevier
Rats were tested preoperatively and following fimbria-fornix lesions in a spatial memory task
on a radial arm maze. With a free choice procedure, fimbria-fornix lesions produced both …

On the role of hippocampal connections in the performance of place and cue tasks: comparisons with damage to hippocampus.

LE Jarrard, H Okaichi, O Steward… - Behavioral …, 1984 - psycnet.apa.org
Abstract 38 male albino Sprague-Dawley rats were trained to run a radial maze with a
procedure that involved 2 kinds of learning (place and cue) and 2 memory functions …

Involvement of entorhinal cortex or parietal cortex in long-term spatial discrimination memory in rats: retrograde amnesia.

YH Cho, RP Kesner - Behavioral neuroscience, 1996 - psycnet.apa.org
Twenty-four rats assigned to 1 of 3 matched groups (control, entorhinal cortex [EC], and
parietal cortex [PC]) were trained on 6 successive discrimination problems (2 in an 8-arm for …
