A neuro‐behavioural model of neophobia
ABSTRACT Fear can be defined as the internal neurological state that releases a repertoire of behaviours an animal performs to reduce the effect of an aversive factor. Neophobia, the fear of novelty, is a fundamental behavioural trait observed across a wide range of species from arthropods to humans.

Perirhinal cortex and the neural basis of object memory in the rat [PDF]
This thesis aimed to investigate the role of the perirhinal cortex in object memory in the rat. The first experiment tested the hypothesis that the perirhinal cortex is critical to memory for relationships between objects by testing postoperative ...

Summary: The current model of the organization of the medial temporal lobe (MTL) episodic memory system assumes that two functionally different “where” and “what” pathways enter MTL as parallel parahippocampal cortex (PHC)-medial entorhinal cortex (MEC ...

Neural and Navigational Features Influencing the Novelty Induced Benefits on Episodic Memory
ABSTRACT Studies in animals have robustly shown that exposure to novelty can promote memory for information presented in the temporal vicinity. In humans, however, evidence for such novelty‐related memory benefits has been mixed. In this EEG study, we investigated the neurobiological mechanisms underlying effects of novelty on memory and whether ...

The role of the perirhinal cortex in visual learning in the rat [PDF]
The aim of this thesis was to investigate the role of the perirhinal cortex in visual discrimination learning in the rat. Experiment one measured postoperative reacquisition of two sets of concurrent visual discriminations acquired at different time ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Obesity and its metabolic complications, such as insulin resistance and cognitive decline, remain a global health challenge. Green tea (Camelia sinensis) and ω‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are recognized for their antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Cerebrovascular deficits, including cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), play a key role in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Here, we characterize the susceptibility of the WSB/EiJ genetic context to human AD‐relevant cerebrovascular phenotypes. METHODS CAA and parenchymal plaque analysis and in vivo neurovascular imaging were

The rat perirhinal cortex: A review of anatomy, physiology, plasticity, and function [PDF]
The perirhinal cortex is located in a pivotal position to influence the flow of information into and out of the hippocampal formation. In this review, we examine the anatomical, physiological and functional properties of the rat perirhinal cortex ...

Abstract INTRODUCTION The anterior medial temporal lobe (MTL), including the entorhinal cortex (ERC) and Brodmann area 35 (BA35), is among the earliest cortical sites of tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet conventional image segmentation methods poorly capture these regions.

What pharmacological interventions indicate concerning the role of the perirhinal cortex in recognition memory [PDF]
Findings of pharmacological studies that have investigated the involvement of specific regions of the brain in recognition memory are reviewed. The particular emphasis of the review concerns what such studies indicate concerning the role of the ...
