Sex-specific positive and negative consequences of avoidance training during childhood on adult active avoidance learning in mice
In humans and animals cognitive training during childhood plays an important role in shaping neural circuits and thereby determines learning capacity later in life. Using a negative feedback learning paradigm, the two-way active avoidance (TWA) learning, we aimed to investigate in mice (i) the age-dependency of TWA learning, (ii) the consequences of pretraining in childhood on adult learning ca...
متن کاملEffects of Chronic Contact with Low Levels of Lead Acetate on Learning in Active Mice Avoidance Conditional Approach
Introduction: Lead (Pb) is a major pollutant in the environment, which, upon long exposure, can impose a broad range of abnormalities in the structure and function of the brain, especially in the infant. Despite the efforts made in the behavioral effects of lead on the results, there are contradictions and conflicts. In this study, we assessed the effect of chronic exposure to low levels of lea...
متن کاملEffects of acute intra-hippocompal injection of bupropion on active avoidance learning in rats
Introduction: Learning and memory deficits in some diseases are new subjects of research. Bupropion, as dopamine and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor and an antidepressant agent, has been previously shown to affect learning and memory processes. This study was designed to test the effect of intra-hippocompal bupropion injection on active avoidance learning task in rats. Methods: Adult male ...
متن کاملAvoidance learning in autoimmune mice.
Previous studies have shown that autoimmune mice perform very poorly on active avoidance learning tasks. In the current studies, mice with lupus-like systemic autoimmunity were able to learn active, as well as passive, avoidance protocols with shock as reinforcement. Therefore, the behavioral deficits seen in active avoidance tasks are not a consequence of the use of electric shock. Rather, the...
متن کاملEffects of different doses of zinc chloride on passive avoidance learning and memory in streptozotocin-induced diabetic adult male rats
Introduction: Zinc is an essential rare element that plays an important role in synaptic plasticity and modulation of the activity of central nervous system and is involved in learning and memory. Increasing zinc intake may protect against conditions associated with zinc deficiency, such as diabetes. Some studies have revealed that zinc deficiency in diabetic subjects is due to hogher excret...
