Prepulse-elicited startle in prepulse inhibition.
BACKGROUND Prepulse inhibition (PPI) has become a major experimental paradigm in the study of psychiatric disorders. In this study, a potential confound in measurement and interpretation of PPI, namely startle reactions to so-called "nonstartling" prepulses, was examined. METHODS Prepulses of 80, 85, and 90 dB(A) were presented on their own or followed by a pulse of 115 dB(A) (lead interval: ...
متن کاملReduced prepulse inhibition is associated with increased hypnotizability.
Hypnosis involves the manipulation of conscious attentional discrimination. The prepulse inhibition (PPI) paradigm assesses primary unconscious information processing. We investigated the correlation between hypnotizability and PPI of the startle reflex. Forty-eight healthy subjects were evaluated with the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale, Form C (SHSS:C) and acoustic PPI. Subjects were d...
متن کاملIntracerebroventricular infusion of cytosine-arabinoside causes prepulse inhibition disruption.
Adult neurogenesis in hippocampus is associated with behaviors such as learning. Hippocampus is involved in the regulation of prepulse inhibition (PPI), but the relationship between neurogenesis and PPI is unexplored. We conducted four experiments to determine the role of neural progenitor cell proliferation in PPI. Intracerebroventricular infusion of cytostatic cytosine arabinoside caused PPI ...
متن کاملReflex excitability regulates prepulse inhibition.
Presentation of a weak stimulus, a prepulse, before a reflex-evoking stimulus decreases the amplitude of the reflex response relative to reflex amplitude evoked without a preceding prepulse. For example, presenting a brief tone before a trigeminal blink-eliciting stimulus significantly reduces reflex blink amplitude. A common explanation of such data are that sensory processing of the prepulse ...
متن کاملA Neural Network Model of Prepulse Inhibition
The authors introduce a real-time model of acoustic prepulse inhibition (PPI) and facilitation (PPF) in animals and humans. The model incorporates excitatory and facilitatory pathways activated by the positive value of changes in noise level in the environment and an inhibitory pathway activated by the absolute value of changes in noise level. Whereas excitation and facilitation are exponential...
