introduction: the dorsal striatum plays an important role in the control of motor activity and learning processes within the basal ganglia circuitry. furthermore, recent works have suggested functional differentiation between subregions of the dorsal striatum methods: the present study examined the effects of bilateral electrolytic lesions of the dorsomedial striatum on motor behavior and learn...

aging has negative effects on motor and cognitive functions, so it is essential to identify appropriate strategies to prevent the decrease of motor and cognitive functions. the aim of this research was to investigate the effect of vitamin e supplement on motor activity and spatial learning in aged rats. 36 male albino – wistar aged rats were assigned to three groups of control, vitamin e and sh...

for years, the role of cerebellum was believed to be limited to motor functions. only since almost two decades ago, a new concept about cerebellum and its contribution to non-motor functions including cognition and emotion started to emerged. during the recent years, numerous studies have focused on the cerebellar non-motor functions with their results providing supportive evidence on this view...
