Thalamic role in spatial memory

Behavioural Brain Research, 1986
The contribution of structures in the limbic diencephalon to spatial memory function was investigated. Rats with lesions of either the anteroventral thalamus, anteromedial thalamus, dorsomedial thalamus or mammillary bodies were compared in their ability to perform a delayed alternation task. The results indicate the ablation of the thalamic nuclei did

Spatial memory and hippocampal function

Neuropsychologia, 1979
Abstract Rats with damage to the fimbria-fornix were tested for the post-operative retention of a preoperatively learned discrimination on a radial arm maze. The maze contained two sets of arms. One set, which never had food on them, comprised the “reference memory” task.

Neuroanatomical bases of spatial memory

Brain Research, 1980
Although many brain areas have been implicated in spatial memory processes, recent investigations have focused on the hippocampal formation. The present experiment was designed to determine the relative importance of the hippocampal system as compared to the amygdala, the caudate nucleus, or the frontal cortex. Groups of rats were trained to perform on

Cerebellar contributions to spatial memory

Neuroscience Letters, 2014
There is mounting evidence for a role for the cerebellum in working memory (WM). The majority of relevant studies has examined verbal WM and has suggested specialisation of the right cerebellar hemisphere for language processing. Our study used theta burst stimulation (TBS) to examine whether there is a converse cerebellar hemispheric specialisation ...

Spatial resolution in visual memory

Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2014
Representations in visual short-term memory are considered to contain relatively elaborated information on object structure. Conversely, representations in earlier stages of the visual hierarchy are thought to be dominated by a sensory-based, feed-forward buildup of information.

Transthyretin influences spatial reference memory

Neurobiology of Learning and Memory, 2007
Transthyretin (TTR) is a plasma and cerebrospinal fluid carrier for thyroxine and retinol, described also to sequester the amyloid beta peptide. TTR levels have been described as decreased in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with Alzheimer's disease.

Hippocampus, theta, and spatial memory

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1993
The past 18 months have witnessed interesting developments in several areas of hippocampal research. First, the mechanisms of hippocampal theta are becoming clear, as is its role in spatial coding; each theta cycle appears to act as a clock mechanism against which the firing of the place cells can be timed.
