Sarter M, Turchi J, Gonzalez K (1999) Effects of cortical cholinergic deafferentation upon processing capacity as assessed by an olfactory span task in rats. Neuroscience 1999 Abstracts 554.6. Society for Neuroscience, Miami, FL. Summary: Cortical cholinergic deafferentation, produced by infusions of 192 IgG-saporin into the basal forebrain of rats, results in impairments of processing capacity […]

Garcia P, Linster C, Hasselmo ME, Baxter MG (1999) Selective cholinergic lesions of the horizontal limb of the diagonal band of Broca affect odor perception in rats. Neuroscience 1999 Abstracts 559.2. Society for Neuroscience, Miami, FL. Summary: We have recently shown, in behavioral experiments with rats, that perceptual similarities between aliphatic aldehydes can be at

Butt AE, Bowman TD, Novotnev JS, Rogers JL, Tanabi A (1999) Selective lesions of the nucleus basalis magnocellularis in rats do not affect simple association learning. Neuroscience 1999 Abstracts 559.4. Society for Neuroscience, Miami, FL. Summary: We have previously argued that damage to the cholinergic nucleus basalis magnocellularis (NBM) selectively impairs complex or configural association

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
