Ventral lateral geniculate input to the medial pons is necessary for visual eyeblink conditioning in rats.
The conditioned stimulus (CS) pathway that is necessary for visual delay eyeblink conditioning was investigated in the current study. Rats were initially given eyeblink conditioning with stimulation of the ventral nucleus of the lateral geniculate (LGNv) as the CS followed by conditioning with light and tone CSs in separate training phases. Muscimol was infused into the medial pontine nuclei (M...
متن کاملDevelopmental changes in medial auditory thalamic contributions to associative motor learning.
Eyeblink conditioning (EBC) was used in the current study to examine the mechanisms underlying the ontogeny of associative motor learning in rats. Eyeblink conditioning emerges ontogenetically between postnatal day 17 (P17) and P24 in rats. Previous studies used electrical stimulation to show that the ontogeny of EBC is influenced by developmental changes in input from the medial auditory thala...
متن کاملMedial auditory thalamus inactivation prevents acquisition and retention of eyeblink conditioning.
The auditory conditioned stimulus (CS) pathway that is necessary for delay eyeblink conditioning was investigated using reversible inactivation of the medial auditory thalamic nuclei (MATN) consisting of the medial division of the medial geniculate (MGm), suprageniculate (SG), and posterior intralaminar nucleus (PIN). Rats were given saline or muscimol infusions into the MATN contralateral to t...
متن کاملFocal projections of cat auditory cortex to the pontine nuclei.
The pontine nuclei (PN) receive projections from the auditory cortex (AC) and they are a major source of mossy fibers to the cerebellum. However, they have not been studied in detail using sensitive neuroanatomical tracers, and whether all AC areas contribute to the corticopontine (CP) system is unknown. We characterized the projection patterns of 11 AC areas with WGA-HRP. We also compared them...
