Delayed matching-to-position performance in C57BL/6N mice.
Delayed matching-to-sample is one of the most frequently employed behavioral tasks for assessing spatial working memory in animals. Although the advantages of the task have been widely acknowledged and it is used in the study of a variety of species, its application to mice has been rare. In the present study, we reported the efficacy of a delayed matching-to-position task in C57BL mice lever-p...
متن کاملThe performance of amnesic subjects on tests of delayed matching-to-sample and delayed matching-to-position.
Forced-choice tests of recognition have become the favoured behavioural method for the assessment of models of amnesia in nonhuman primates, yet the profile of deficits shown by human amnesic subjects remains uncertain. The present study explored the performance of 12 amnesic subjects on two delayed matching-to-sample tasks. Experiment 1, which used retention delays of between 2 and 60 sec, con...
متن کاملSustained performance by common marmosets in a delayed matching to position task with variable stimulus presentations
Working memory is used to solve various cognitive problems by maintaining information for some time and then by refreshing this information after certain purposes are achieved. In the present study, we explored the ability of common marmosets to perform a delayed matching to position (DMTP) task in a controlled environment using operant conditioning. The DMTP task requires the subjects to respo...
متن کاملEffects of cortical ectopias on spatial delayed-matching-to-sample performance in BXSB mice.
BXSB mice have small neocortical anomalies (ectopic collections of neurons in layer I), with an incidence of about 40-60%. Previous studies have found that ectopic mice from this strain are faster than non-ectopics in learning the Morris water maze (reference memory), but have poorer working memory for spatial learning. The current study continues the investigation of working memory by testing ...
متن کاملNormal Performance of Fmr1 Mice on a Touchscreen Delayed Nonmatching to Position Working Memory Task.
Fragile X syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by mild-to-severe cognitive deficits. The complete absence of Fmr1 and its protein product in the mouse model of fragile X (Fmr1 KO) provides construct validity. A major conundrum in the field is the remarkably normal performance of Fmr1 mice on cognitive tests in most reports. One explanation may be insufficiently challenging co...
