Recovery of Anterograde Amnesia in a Case of Craniopharyngioma [PDF]
Archives of Neurology, 2004 Studies of the amnesic syndrome have indicated that telencephalic and diencephalic structures are critical components of the memory system. The exact role of the mammillary bodies (MBs) in human memory remains elusive, since few cases of selective MB damage have been reported.To study a case of severe anterograde amnesia due to a third-ventricle ...

Measles-induced immune amnesia and its effects in concurrent epidemics [PDF]
, 2021 It has been recently discovered that the measles virus can wipe out the adaptive immune system, destroying B lymphocytes and reducing the diversity of non-specific B cells of the infected host. In particular, this implies that previously acquired immunization from vaccination or direct exposition to other pathogens could be erased in a phenomenon named
