Striatal acetylcholine enables behavioral flexibility
Acetylcholine is one of the major neurotransmitters in the brain. The highest density of cholinergic markers is found in the striatum, a basal ganglia region that has been associated with behavioral flexibility. In our recent study, we showed a causal role of the cholinergic interneurons of the striatum in set-shifting in the rat. The set-shifting task required an attentional shift from one sti...

متن کاملPotentiating mGluR5 function with a positive allosteric modulator enhances adaptive learning.
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) plays important roles in modulating neural activity and plasticity and has been associated with several neuropathological disorders. Previous work has shown that genetic ablation or pharmacological inhibition of mGluR5 disrupts fear extinction and spatial reversal learning, suggesting that mGluR5 signaling is required for different forms of adaptive le...
متن کاملThe Dynamics of Learning and Behavioral Flexibility
Fundamental to behavior is the capacity to distinguish beneficial from detrimental environmental stimuli. In this issue of Neuron, a new study by Morrison et al. shows that underlying these processes are qualitatively different dynamical interactions between brain structures involved in processing the value of environmental stimuli.
متن کاملA New Behavioral Measure of Cognitive Flexibility
Individual differences in cognitive flexibility may underlie a variety of different user behaviors, but a lack of effective measurement tools has limited the predictive and descriptive potential of cognitive flexibility in humancomputer interaction applications. This study presents a new computerized measure of cognitive flexibility, and then provides evidence for convergent validity. Our findi...
