Supporting Witnesses and Victims to Invoke Episodic Retrieval Mode: Own-Generated Verbal- and Sketch-Reinstatement-of-Context Retrieval Cues Improves Recall Versus Interviewer-Generated Mental Reinstatement of Context Cues [PDF]
Background: Criminal justice relies on information from witnesses. Retrieval from episodic memory is cognitively demanding; thus, many interview protocols advocate techniques to support episodic retrieval mode, which is essential for obtaining detailed ...

DUSP5 Downregulation in Nucleus Accumbens Core Correlates with Cocaine-Induced Maladaptive Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]
The United States is currently facing a drug overdose epidemic. The nucleus accumbens core (NAcore), a brain region critical for reward and aversion behaviors, undergoes structural and functional synaptic adaptations in response to chronic drug exposure.

The effect of intracerebroventricular injection of insulin-like growth factor-1 on morphine-induced conditioned place preference extinction and reinstatement; a behavioral and biochemical experimental study [PDF]
Background Morphine addiction is a growing problem with severe consequences. Interestingly, Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1), a hormone with the ability to modulate neural pathways and exert neuroprotective and regenerative properties, could emerge ...

Misclassification in memory modification in AppNL-G-F knock-in mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the leading cause of dementia, could potentially be mitigated through early detection and interventions. However, it remains challenging to assess subtle cognitive changes in the early AD continuum.

Intolerance of uncertainty predicts altered threat expectancy ratings during reinstatement
Intolerance of uncertainty (IU) is a transdiagnostic risk factor for psychiatric disorders, and plays an important role in fear and threat learning under uncertainty.

Multimodal assessment of long-term memory recall and reinstatement in a combined cue and context fear conditioning and extinction paradigm in humans. [PDF]
Learning to predict danger via associative learning processes is critical for adaptive behaviour. After successful extinction, persisting fear memories often emerge as returning fear. Investigation of return of fear phenomena, e.g.

Identification of brain nuclei implicated in cocaine-primed reinstatement of conditioned place preference: a behaviour dissociable from sensitization. [PDF]
Relapse prevention represents the primary therapeutic challenge in the treatment of drug addiction. As with humans, drug-seeking behaviour can be precipitated in laboratory animals by exposure to a small dose of the drug (prime).

Parvalbumin (PV)-positive cells are GABAergic fast-spiking interneurons that modulate the activity of pyramidal neurons in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and their output to brain areas associated with learning and memory.
