Diurnal locomotor activity and oxidative metabolism of the suprachiasmatic nucleus in two models of hepatic insufficiencyLaudino Lopez
Laboratorio de Psicobiologia, Facultad de Psicologia, Plaza Feijoo s n, 33003 Oviedo, Spain
J Neurol Sci 212:93-7. 2003..001). They also present lower COX activity in the SCN (p<0.05). We conclude that rhythmic alterations are due to hepatic insufficiency and not to portal hypertension...
Basal and learning task-related brain oxidative metabolism in cirrhotic ratsMarta Mendez
Laboratorio de Neurociencias, Departamento de Psicologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Plaza Feijoo s n, 33003 Oviedo, Spain
Brain Res Bull 78:195-201. 2009..These findings suggest that cirrhotic rats show spatial working memory deficits that could be related to the alteration of metabolic activity of neural regions thought to be involved in the processing of spatial memories...
Cytochrome oxidase activity of the suprachiasmatic nucleus and pineal gland in rats with portacaval shuntLaudino Lopez
Laboratorio de Psicobiologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Oviedo, Spain
Exp Neurol 173:275-82. 2002..We conclude that the suprachiasmatic nucleus is possibly involved in the rhythmic changes associated with hepatic insufficiency...
Working memory impairment and reduced hippocampal and prefrontal cortex c-Fos expression in a rat model of cirrhosisMarta Mendez
Laboratorio de Neurociencias, Departamento de Psicologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Plaza Feijoo s n, 33003 Oviedo, Spain
Physiol Behav 95:302-7. 2008..These findings suggest that cirrhotic rats show spatial working memory impairment that could be linked to dysfunction in neuronal activity in prefrontal cortex and hippocampus...
Associative learning deficit in two experimental models of hepatic encephalopathyMarta Mendez
Laboratorio de Neurociencias, Departamento de Psicologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Plaza Feijoo s n, 33003 Oviedo, Spain
Behav Brain Res 198:346-51. 2009....
Hippocampal heterogeneity in spatial memory revealed by cytochrome oxidaseMagdalena Méndez-López
Laboratorio de Neurociencias, Departamento de Psicologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Plaza Feijoo s n, 33003 Oviedo, Spain
Neurosci Lett 452:162-6. 2009..No changes were found in the temporal hippocampus. These findings suggest that septal and intermediate hippocampal zones participate in this spatial learning and contribute at different moments to process this information...
Spatial working memory in Wistar rats: brain sex differences in metabolic activityMagdalena Méndez-López
Laboratorio de Neurociencias, Departamento de Psicologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Plaza Feijoo s n, 33003 Oviedo, Asturias, Spain
Brain Res Bull 79:187-92. 2009....
Memory performance and scopolamine: hypoactivity of the thalamus revealed by cytochrome oxidase histochemistryMagdalena Méndez-López
Laboratorio de Neurociencias, Departamento de Psicologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Plaza Feijoo s n, 33003 Oviedo, Spain
Acta Histochem 113:465-71. 2011..Overall, these findings suggest that memory deficits induced by scopolamine may be due to impairment of the cholinergic function in the anterior thalamic nuclei...
Spatial working memory learning in young male and female rats: involvement of different limbic system regions revealed by cytochrome oxidase activityMagdalena Méndez-López
Laboratorio de Neurociencias, Departamento de Psicologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Plaza Feijoo s n, 33003 Oviedo, Spain
Neurosci Res 65:28-34. 2009..These results suggest a sex difference in the contribution of brain limbic structures to the WM process during postnatal development...
Spatial memory alterations in three models of hepatic encephalopathyMarta Mendez
Laboratorio de Neurociencias, Departamento de Psicologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Plaza Feijoo s n, 33003 Oviedo, Spain
Behav Brain Res 188:32-40. 2008....
Sexually dimorphic c-Fos expression following spatial working memory in young and adult ratsMagdalena Méndez-López
Laboratorio de Neurociencias, Departamento de Psicologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Plaza Feijoo s n, 33003 Oviedo, Spain
Physiol Behav 98:307-17. 2009..The activation of common and interrelated structures suggests that these structures are involved in spatial processing but it also highlights the relevance of developmental changes for understanding the memory process...
Changes in cytochrome oxidase activity following spatial working memory learning in rats treated with tacrineMagdalena Méndez-López
Universidad de Oviedo, Facultad de Psicologia, Oviedo, Spain
Psicothema 22:893-7. 2010..These results suggest that inhibition of the acetylcholinesterase produces a different pattern of learning-related neuronal activity in the limbic system of the rat...
Acetylcholinesterase activity in an experimental rat model of Type C hepatic encephalopathyMarta Mendez
Laboratorio de Neurociencias, Departamento de Psicologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Plaza Feijoo s n, Oviedo, Spain
Acta Histochem 113:358-62. 2011....
Reversal learning impairment and alterations in the prefrontal cortex and the hippocampus in a model of portosystemic hepatic encephalopathyMarta Mendez
Laboratorio de Neurociencias, Departamento de Psicologia, Universidad de Oviedo, Spain
Acta Neurol Belg 110:246-54. 2010..Overall, these results suggest that this specific model of portosystemic hepatic encephalopathy produces reversal learning impairment that could be linked to dysfunction in neuronal activity in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus...
Effects of Pavlovian fear conditioning on septohippocampal metabolism in ratsNelida M Conejo
Psychobiology Laboratory, Department of Psychobiology, Facultad de Psicologia, Plaza Feijoo, s n E 33003 Oviedo, Spain
Neurosci Lett 373:94-8. 2005..No differences in CO labelling of the basolateral amygdala were detected among all groups. These findings suggest that the septohippocampal system plays an important role in controlling conditioned fear behaviour...
Cognitive deficits in patients with hepatic cirrhosis and in liver transplant recipientsCarmen Pantiga
Psychobiology Laboratory, Department of Psychiatry, University of Oviedo, Spain
J Neuropsychiatry Clin Neurosci 15:84-9. 2003..In contrast, liver transplant recipients presented only a slightly altered cerebral dysfunction in comparison to the control group. Their cognitive capacity was slightly better than that of patients with asymptomatic cirrhosis...
Bilateral and unilateral hippocampal inactivation did not differ in their effect on consolidation processes in the Morris water mazeJose M Cimadevilla
Department of Neuroscience, University of Almeria, Almeria, Spain
Int J Neurosci 118:619-26. 2008..In both cases, the impairment is only visible in the first trial of the session following the blockade...
