Amygdaloid lesions and stimulus-reward associations in the rat.
Rats with amygdaloid lesions were trained on learning set tasks designed to tax stimulus-reward associations. Lesions centred in the medial and ventral half of the amygdala had no effect on the acquisition of two object discriminations but did impair successive reversals of the second discrimination. The same lesions had no effect, however, on the acquisition of a spatial win-stay lose-shift ta...
متن کاملRat Amygdaloid Complex
The distribution of GABA-like (GABA-Li) immunoreactivity in the rat amygdaloid complex was studied by using an anti-GABA antibody. GABALi positive neurons and processes were present in every nucleus of the complex. Three patterns of immunoreactivity were revealed: (1) the intercalated masses and the lateral olfactory tract nucleus exhibited the most intense staining of the neuropil, and virtual...
متن کاملGlucocorticoids, the hippocampus, and behavioral inhibition in the preweanling rat.
Endogenous corticosteroids influence brain development and behavioral expression. In rat pups, a corticosteroid-dependent developmental response is behavioral inhibition, which occurs in situations involving threat. Behavioral inhibition consists of freezing and a reduction in ongoing behavior. It is presently unknown which brain region(s) that bind corticosterone (CORT) is involved in the deve...
متن کاملEffects of amygdaloid and amygdaloid-hippocampal lesions on object recognition and spatial working memory in rats.
Neurotoxic lesions of the amygdala did not affect the postoperative acquisition of a nonspatial test of object recognition (delayed nonmatching to sample) even when retention delays were increased from 0 s to 20 or 60 s, or when test stimuli were deliberately repeated within a session. Although these amygdaloid lesions did not alter forced-choice spatial alternation, they slightly increased neo...
متن کاملLatent inhibition of conditioned taste aversion in rats with amygdaloid or hippocampal lesions
The amygdala and hippocampus play crucial roles in the latent inhibition of different conditioned responses, such as fear conditioned. Nevertheless, the involvement of these structures in the latent inhibition of conditioned taste aversion (CTA) is uncertain. In the present study, we explore the relevance of the amygdala and hippocampus in latent inhibition using a CTA paradigm. The effects of ...
