Title: A Study of the Participation of NMDA Glutamate Receptors in the Mechanisms of Specific Anterograde Amnesia Reversion. Author: Solntseva SV, Kozyrev SA, Nikitin VP. Journal: Bull Exp Biol Med; 2020 Dec; 170(2):175-180. PubMed ID: 33269451. Abstract: We studied the involvement of NMDA glutamate receptors in the mechanisms of anterograde amnesia. It was found that repeated training of amnestic animals treated with D-cycloserine, a potent agonist of the glycine site of NMDA receptors, did not lead to consolidation of long-term memory, while expression of short-term memory was more pronounced in comparison with control animals that received saline before repeated training. It was shown that D-cycloserine in amnestic snails did not affect the food reactions caused by the presentation of a conditioned stimulus during the reminder (without combination with the unconditioned stimulus). It is assumed that NMDA glutamate receptors in amnestic animals are involved in the neural plasticity mechanisms that underlie short-term memory, but their activation does not influence the anterograde amnesia processes and does not lead to the formation or recovery of long-term memory.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
