Rapid induction of specific associative behavioral memory by stimulation of the nucleus basalis in the rat.
Hypothesized circuitry enabling behavioral memory formation can be tested by its direct activation in the absence of normal experience. Neuromodulation via the cortical release of acetylcholine by the nucleus basalis (NB) is hypothesized to be sufficient to induce specific, associative behavioral memory. Previously, we found that tone paired with stimulation of the nucleus basalis (NBs) for 300...
متن کاملInduction of behavioral associative memory by stimulation of the nucleus basalis.
The nucleus basalis (NB) has been implicated in memory formation indirectly, by lesions, pharmacological manipulations, and neural correlates of learning. Prior findings imply that engagement of the NB during learning promotes memory storage. We directly tested this NB-memory hypothesis by determining whether stimulation of the NB induces behavioral associative memory. Rats were trained either ...
متن کاملThe nucleus basalis and memory codes: auditory cortical plasticity and the induction of specific, associative behavioral memory.
Receptive field (RF) plasticity develops in the primary auditory cortex (ACx) when a tone conditioned stimulus (CS) becomes associated with an appetitive or aversive unconditioned stimulus (US). This prototypical stimulus-stimulus (S-S) association is accompanied by shifts of frequency tuning of neurons toward or to the frequency of the CS such that the area of best tuning of the CS frequency i...
متن کاملBehavioral memory induced by stimulation of the nucleus basalis: effects of contingency reversal.
Specific behavioral associative memory induced by stimulation of the cortically-projecting cholinergic nucleus basalis (NB) is dependent on intrinsic acetylcholine and shares with natural memory such features as associativity, specificity, rapid formation, consolidation and long-term retention. Herein, we examined extinction and the effects of stimulus pre-exposure. Two groups of adult male rat...
متن کاملInduction of a physiological memory in the cerebral cortex by stimulation of the nucleus basalis.
Auditory cortical receptive field plasticity produced during behavioral learning may be considered to constitute "physiological memory" because it has major characteristics of behavioral memory: associativity, specificity, rapid acquisition, and long-term retention. To investigate basal forebrain mechanisms in receptive field plasticity, we paired a tone with stimulation of the nucleus basalis,...
