Early maternal deprivation and prepulse inhibition: the role of the postdeprivation environment.

open access: yes, 2002
Early postnatal maternal deprivation leads to a variety of biochemical and behavioural alterations in the offspring, some of which do not develop until adulthood, like deficits in prepulse inhibition.

Sex differences in prepulse inhibition deficits in chronic schizophrenia

open access: yes, 2004
Recent years have seen a dramatic growth in the number of studies using prepulse inhibition (PPI) paradigms to index information processing deficits in schizophrenia.

Role of the NMDA-receptor in Prepulse Inhibition in the Rat

open access: yesInternational Journal of Tryptophan Research, 2010
Kynurenic acid (KYNA) is an endogenous metabolite of tryptophan. Studies have revealed increased brain KYNA levels in patients with schizophrenia. Prepulse inhibition (PPI) is a behavioral model for sensorimotor gating and found to be reduced in schizophrenia.

Prepulse inhibition of the startle response in men with schizophrenia - Effects of age of onset of illness, symptoms, and medication

open access: yes, 2000
Background: Prepulse inhibition of the startle reflex response refers to the ability of a weak prestimulus to transiently inhibit the response to a closely following strong sensory stimulus.

Inhibitory effects of prepulse stimuli on the electrophysiological responses to startle stimuli in the deep layers of the superior colliculus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
BackgroundPrepulse inhibition (PPI) is a phenomenon where a weak prepulse stimulus inhibits the startle reflex to a subsequent stronger stimulus, which can be induced by various sensory stimulus modalities such as visual, tactile, and auditory stimuli ...

Minocycline and risperidone prevent microglia activation and rescue behavioral deficits induced by neonatal intrahippocampal injection of lipopolysaccharide in rats.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundVarious signs of activation of microglia have been reported in schizophrenia, and it is hypothesized that microglia activation is closely associated with the neuropathology of schizophrenia.MethodsNeonatal intrahippocampal injection of ...

GAT1 KO mice show impaired prepulse inhibition and latent inhibition.

open access: yes, 2013
A1, Startle amplitude to a 120 dB acoustic stimulus was normal in GAT1 KO mice. A2, GAT1 KO mice exhibited significantly reduced percent prepulse inhibition of the acoustic startle response across prepulse intensities (70, 75, 80 dB).

Effects of Metabolic Dysfunction–Associated Steatohepatitis in Alertness, Associative Learning, and Astrocyte Density

open access: yesBrain and Behavior
Purpose Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is a prevalent disease caused by high fat and high cholesterol intake, which leads to systemic deterioration. The aim of this research is to conduct a psychobiological exploration of MASH in

Startle response and prepulse inhibition in GluD1-KO mice.

open access: yes, 2020
(A) Acoustic startle response test: Startle responses amplitudes were dependent on pulse intensity (WT, n = 7; GluD1-KO, n = 9) (two-way ANOVA: F7,112 = 24.2, p 1,112 = 0.08, p = 0.78), and no interaction between genotype and tone intensity (F7,112 = 0 ...

Prepulse inhibition of startle-induced reductions of accumbens dopamine [Abstract]

open access: yes, 1995
Schizophrenia patients exhibit deficits in the prepulse inhibition of startle, an operational measure of the sensorimotor gating dysfunctions that may contribute to cognitive disorganization. In rats, activation of mesolimbic dopamine (DA) receptors (e.g.
