Wrenn CC, Lappi DA, Wiley RG (1999) Lack of effect of intraventricular OX7-saporin on working memory in the rat. Neuroscience 1999 Abstracts 559.5. Society for Neuroscience, Miami, FL. Summary: The immunotoxin 192 IgG-saporin (192-sap) has been shown by our laboratory and others to be a highly selective agent for the production of lesions of the […]

Neuroscience 1999 Abstracts 559.6. Society for Neuroscience, Miami, FL. Summary: Cholinergic basal forebrain (BF) fibers begin to innervate neocortex and hippocampus during the first week of life in rodents. Because this

Secor A, Nocera R, Pang KCH (1999) GABAergic septohippocampal neurons are not necessary for spatial memory. (Poster). Neuroscience 1999 Abstracts 559.9 . Society for Neuroscience, Miami, FL. Summary: The medial septum/diagonal band of Broca (MS-DB) provides a major input to the hippocampus, and nonselective lesions of MS-DB neurons or their projections to the hippocampus impair
