Selective nucleus accumbens core lesions enhance dizocilpine-induced but not apomorphine-induced disruption of prepulse inhibition in rats.

open access: yes, 2006
Prepulse inhibition refers to the reduction in startle reaction to a startle-eliciting 'pulse' when it is shortly preceded by a weak 'prepulse' stimulus. The nucleus accumbens plays a pivotal role in the regulation of prepulse inhibition in rats, but the

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 ...

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.

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

Prepulse inhibition of the blink reflex is abnormal in functional movement disorders. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019

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 ...

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.

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.

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).

A Cellular Mechanism for Prepulse Inhibition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In prepulse inhibition (PPI), startle responses to sudden, unexpected stimuli are markedly attenuated if immediately preceded by a weak stimulus of almost any modality.
