Cells in the hippocampal formation show spatial firing correlates thought to be critical to the
role played by this structure in spatial learning. Place cells in the hippocampus proper show …

Using a genetic approach, we assessed the effects of mutations in protein kinase A (PKA) on
long-term potentiation (LTP) in the mossy fiber pathway and its relationship to spatial and …

Brain structures thought to be critical for learning and memory were lesioned, and the effects
on rats' ability to locate food on a radial maze in situations that provided different types of …

The elucidation of the functional role of the basal forebrain cholinergic system will require
access to a highly specific and efficient cholinergic neurotoxin. Recently, selective depletion …

The purpose of this study was to determine the degree of sensorimotor and cognitive
protection conferred by posttraumatic brain hypothermia. Baseline measurements were …

The effects of entorhinal–perirhinal lesions in rats were studied with 2 versions of a place
learning task in the Morris water maze. These lesions impaired performance on a multiple …

The effect of 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetralin (8-OH-DPAT), a 5-HT1A receptor
agonist, on spatial and non-spatial learning in a water maze was studied using two tasks of …

The acquisition of a place learning task in a water maze modified from the “standard” set-up
by restriction of distal cues and addition of “proximal” cues (ping-pong balls in fixed positions …

We investigated the functional and behavioral implications of chronic corticosteroid removal
in young and middle‐aged rats. Prepubertal and 13‐month‐old rats were adrenalectomized …

The effects of perinatal exposure to testicular hormones were studied in male and female
rats given medial prefrontal cortical (PFC) lesions on Postnatal Day 7. Hormonally intact rats …
