Role of the cholinergic muscarinic receptors of the CA1 area in the memory impairment induced by iron oxide nanoparticle in adult male rats
Objective(s): Nanoparticles of iron oxide (nFe2O3) are widely used in medicine and industry and could interfere with the brain processes associated with memory. The involvement of muscarinic cholinergic receptors in the process of memory formation has been confirmed. The present study aimed to investigate the possible interference of the cholinergic muscarinic receptors of the dorsal hippocampa...
متن کاملGlucocorticoid-cholinergic interactions in the dorsal striatum in memory consolidation of inhibitory avoidance training
Extensive evidence indicates that glucocorticoid hormones act in a variety of brain regions to enhance the consolidation of memory of emotionally motivated training experiences. We previously reported that corticosterone, the major glucocorticoid in the rat, administered into the dorsal striatum immediately after inhibitory avoidance training dose-dependently enhances memory consolidation of th...
متن کاملGlucocorticoids Interact with Cholinergic System in Impairing Memory Reconsolidation of an Inhibitory Avoidance Task in Mice
Introduction: Recent studies suggest that glucocorticoids modulate memory reconsolidation. Moreover, cholinergic system is involved in memory reconsolidation. Since glucocorticoids interact with brain cholinergic system in modulating memory processing, we investigated whether glucocorticoid influences on the reconsolidation of emotionally arousing training depend on the cholinergic system...
متن کاملImpairment of reward-related learning by cholinergic cell ablation in the striatum.
The striatum in the basal ganglia-thalamocortical circuitry is a key neural substrate that is implicated in motor balance and procedural learning. The projection neurons in the striatum are dynamically modulated by nigrostriatal dopaminergic input and intrastriatal cholinergic input. The role of intrastriatal acetylcholine (ACh) in learning behaviors, however, remains to be fully clarified. In ...
متن کاملInvolvement of Dorsal Hippocampal Muscarinic Cholinergic Receptors of CA1 Area on Anxiety Induced by Iron Oxide Nanoparticles in Adult Male Rats
Introduction: Recent findings revealed the biological effects of iron oxide nanoparticles on the central nervous system. Moreover, the brain cholinergic system plays a role in the modulation of anxiety behaviors. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the role of dorsal hippocampal muscarinic cholinergic receptors of the CA1 area on anxiety induced by iron oxide nanoparticles in adult male rat...
