Molecular Signaling during Taste Aversion Learning (2007)
Bernstein, Ilene L., Koh, Ming Teng
Behavioral and neural assessment tools have been used to identify cellular and molecular events that occur during taste aversion acquisition. Studies described here include an assessment of taste...
NaCl Detection Thresholds: Comparison of Fischer 344 and Wistar rats (2001)
Koh, Ming Teng, Bernstein, Ilene L.
Adult Fischer 344 (F344) rats fail to display any preference for NaCl solutions at concentrations typically preferred by other rat strains. To determine whether this behavior is due to a strain...
Genetic transmission of NaCl aversion in the Fischer-344 rat (1990)
Sollars, Suzanne I., Midkiff, Eleanor E., Bernstein, Ilene L.
Fischer-344 (F-344) rats fail to prefer sodium chloride (NaCl) solutions to water at any concentration, and avoid NaCl solutions preferred by other strains including the Buffalo (BF) rat. These...
Conditioning Method Dramatically Alters the Role of Amygdala in Taste Aversion Learning
Schafe, Glenn E., Thiele, Todd E., Bernstein, Ilene L.
Although an important role for the amygdala in taste aversion learning has been suggested by work in a number of laboratories, results have been inconsistent and interpretations varied. The present...

Visualizing stimulus convergence in amygdala neurons during associative learning
Barot, Sabiha K., Kyono, Yasuhiro, Clark, Emily W., Bernstein, Ilene L.
A central feature of models of associative memory formation is the reliance on information convergence from pathways responsive to the conditioned stimulus (CS) and unconditioned stimulus (US). In...
