Stress-induced alterations in hippocampal plasticity, place cells, and spatial memory

Kim, Jeansok J., Lee, Hongjoo J., Welday, Adam C., Song, EunYoung, Cho, Jeiwon, Sharp, Patricia E., ...

Acute, inescapable, and unpredictable stress can profoundly modify brain and cognition in humans and animals. The present study investigated the ensuing effects of 2-h variable “audiogenic”...

Control of appetitive and aversive taste-reactivity responses by an auditory conditioned stimulus in a devaluation task: A FOS and behavioral analysis

Kerfoot, Erin C., Agarwal, Isha, Lee, Hongjoo J., Holland, Peter C.

Through associative learning, cues for biologically significant reinforcers such as food may gain access to mental representations of those reinforcers. Here, we used devaluation procedures,...

Rapid encoding of new information alters the profile of plasticity-related mRNA transcripts in the hippocampal CA3 region

Haberman, Rebecca P., Lee, Hongjoo J., Colantuoni, Carlo, Koh, Ming Teng, Gallagher, Michela

A theoretical framework for the function of the medial temporal lobe system in memory defines differential contributions of the hippocampal subregions with regard to pattern recognition retrieval...
