mGluR5 Has a Critical Role in Inhibitory Learning [PDF]

The Journal of Neuroscience, 2009
The mechanisms that contribute to the extinction of previously acquired memories are not well understood. These processes, often referred to as inhibitory learning, are thought to be parallel learning mechanisms that require a reacquisition of new information and suppression of previously acquired experiences in order to adapt to novel situations ...

The role of inhibitory associations in perceptual learning [PDF]

Animal Learning & Behavior, 1999
Preexposure to two compound flavors (AX and BX) typically enhances their discriminability: An aversion conditioned to AX will generalize less to BX, especially if the preexposure regime has involved alternated presentations of AX and BX rather than presenting all AX trials before BX trials (or vice versa).

Whole-brain mapping of long-range inputs to the VIP-expressing inhibitory neurons in the primary motor cortex

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2023
The primary motor cortex (MOp) is an important site for motor skill learning. Interestingly, neurons in MOp possess reward-related activity, presumably to facilitate reward-based motor learning.

Excitatory and inhibitory learning with absent stimuli. [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 2008
Three experiments showed that 2 associatively activated stimulus representations may engage in excitatory or inhibitory learning, depending on their temporal relationship. Experiment 1a suggested that simultaneously activated stimulus representations show evidence of inhibitory learning in an acquisition test.

Roles and Transcriptional Responses of Inhibitory Neurons in Learning and Memory [PDF]

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021
Increasing evidence supports a model whereby memories are encoded by sparse ensembles of neurons called engrams, activated during memory encoding and reactivated upon recall. An engram consists of a network of cells that undergo long-lasting modifications of their transcriptional programs and connectivity.

Irrelevance by inhibition: Learning, computation, and implications for schizophrenia. [PDF]

PLoS Computational Biology, 2018
Symptoms of schizophrenia may arise from a failure of cortical circuits to filter-out irrelevant inputs. Schizophrenia has also been linked to disruptions in cortical inhibitory interneurons, consistent with the possibility that in the normally ...

Inhibitory properties of a latent inhibitor after its compound preexposure with several novel stimuli: evidence from human conditioning

Frontiers in Psychology
Latent inhibition refers to the retardation in learning an association between a target stimulus and an outcome when the target stimulus has been pre-exposed in the absence of consequences.

Can Working Memory and Inhibitory Control Predict Second Language Learning in the Classroom?

SAGE Open, 2015
The role of executive functioning in second language (L2) aptitude remains unclear. Whereas some studies report a relationship between working memory (WM) and L2 learning, others have argued against this association. Similarly, being bilingual appears to

Enriched expression of NF1 in inhibitory neurons in both mouse and human brain

Molecular Brain, 2019
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by loss-of-function mutations in NF1 gene, which encodes a GTPase activating protein for RAS.

Opposite regulation of inhibition by adult-born granule cells during implicit versus explicit olfactory learning

eLife, 2018
Both passive exposure and active learning through reinforcement enhance fine sensory discrimination abilities. In the olfactory system, this enhancement is thought to occur partially through the integration of adult-born inhibitory interneurons resulting
