Abstract

There is growing appreciation that various aspects of learning and memory are strongly influenced by dopamine neurotransmission, and that zebrafish hold particular promise in the study of neurotransmitter systems. In this study, we sought to investigate the effect of dopamine receptors on acquisition and consolidation of memory in zebrafish using a latent learning paradigm. To this end, fish were subjected to a 30 min training trial each day for 16 days during which fish were allowed to freely explore a complex maze with the left or right path blocked and without the presence of a reward. During 16 days fish were treated with dopaminergic agonists (apomorphine, SKF-38393, and quinpirole) and antagonists (SCH-23390 and eticlopride) before or after training trials. To assess cognitive performance of fish, a subsequent probe trial was performed on day 17 while all paths leading to a reward chamber were open and the maze now contained stimulus fish as a reward. Pre- and post-training exposure to apomorphine, SKF-38393, and quinpirole significantly impaired learning and memory in fish. In contrast, fish exposed to eticlopride before and after training exhibited improved performance in a latent learning task. Administration of SCH-23...Continue Reading

Amygdala: Sensory Processes

Amygdalae, nuclei clusters located in the temporal lobe of the brain, play a role in memory, emotional responses, and decision-making. Here is the latest research on sensory processes in the amygdala.

Amygdala and Midbrain Dopamine

The midbrain dopamine system is widely studied for its involvement in emotional and motivational behavior. Some of these neurons receive information from the amygdala and project throughout the cortex. When the circuit and transmission of dopamine is disrupted symptoms may present. Here is the latest research on the amygdala and midbrain dopamine.

Basal Ganglia

Basal Ganglia are a group of subcortical nuclei in the brain associated with control of voluntary motor movements, procedural and habit learning, emotion, and cognition. Here is the latest research.

Barrel cortex

Here is the latest research on barrel cortex, a region of somatosensory and motor corticies in the brain, which are used by animals that rely on whiskers for world exploration.
