Mechanisms underlying early odor preference learning in rats
2014, Progress in Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :In the main OB, these receptors are prominent in periglomerular cells but also occur in other cell types such as granule cells (Neki et al., 1996; Ohishi et al., 1993; Petralia et al., 1996). Infusion of DCG-IV, in the main OB, paired with exposure to peppermint odor, induces odor preference learning (Rumsey et al., 2001). If applied together with odor + stroking, the same DCG-IV dose prevents odor preference learning.
Mammalian intermediate-term memory: New findings in neonate rat
2011, Neurobiology of Learning and MemoryCitation Excerpt :Activation of β-adrenoceptors (as the unconditioned stimulus, US), paired with a novel odor (as the conditioned stimulus, CS), is both necessary and sufficient for the expression of a preference for the odor 24 h later (Sullivan, McGaugh, & Leon, 1991). We (Langdon, Harley, & McLean, 1997; Rumsey, Darby-King, Harley, & McLean, 2001; Yuan, Harley, Darby-King, Neve, & McLean, 2003) and others (Moriceau & Sullivan, 2004) have shown that manipulations limited to the olfactory bulb are sufficient to induce or prevent early odor preference learning. In the present experiments, intrabulbar infusions of protein synthesis inhibitors for translation (anisomycin) and transcription (actinomycin) given immediately after training were used to explore the protein synthesis requirements of 3 h, 5 h and 24 h odor preference memory in rat pups.
