Gap junctions of the hippocampal CA1 area are crucial for memory consolidation
Introduction: Gap junctions are specialized cell–cell contacts between eukaryotic cells through which they communicate. This type of communication has the potential to modulate memory process. We evaluated the effects of the gating of the hippocampal CA1 area gap junction channels on memory consolidation, using passive avoidance task. Materials and Methods: 72 adult male Wistar rats were distri...
متن کامل“the effect of risk aversion on the demand for life insurance: the case of iranian life insurance market”
abstract: about 60% of total premium of insurance industry is pertained?to life policies in the world; while the life insurance total premium in iran is less than 6% of total premium in insurance industry in 2008 (sigma, no 3/2009). among the reasons that discourage the life insurance industry is the problem of adverse selection. adverse selection theory describes a situation where the inf...
15 صفحه اولMicrosaccades Are an Index of Covert Attention
Horowitz, Fine, Fencsik, Yurgenson, and Wolfe (2007, this issue) investigated the relation between microsaccade congruency (MC, the congruency between the direction of the microsaccade and the location of the target) and reaction time (RT) in a spatial cuing paradigm and concluded that ‘‘fixational eye movements are not an index of covert attention.’’ We show that microsaccade direction is a re...
متن کاملMicrosaccades
What are they? Saccades are the rapid, jerky eye movements that we use to scan the world around us. They are necessary because high-resolution vision is only possible with the high density of photoreceptors near the center of the retina. Microsaccades resemble regular saccades in most respects except that they are tiny and occur even when we are attempting to fixate the eyes on a particular loc...
متن کاملMultiple mechanisms are responsible for altered expression of gap junction genes during oncogenesis in rat liver.
Although several abnormalities in gap junction (GJ) structure and/or function have been described in neoplasms, the molecular mechanisms responsible for many of the alterations remain unknown. The identification of a family of GJ proteins, termed connexins, prompted this study of connexin32 (Cx32), connexin26 (Cx26) and connexin43 (Cx43) expression during rat hepatocarcinogenesis. Using antibod...
