Cholinergic lesions produce task-selective effects on delayed matching to position and configural association learning related to response pattern and strategy.

Gibbs RB, Johnson DA (2007) Cholinergic lesions produce task-selective effects on delayed matching to position and configural association learning related to response pattern and strategy. Neurobiol Learn Mem 88:19-32. doi: 10.1016/j.nlm.2007.03.007

Summary: It has been well established that the cholinergic system of the basal forebrain plays a critical role in many cognitive processes. This work utilized injections of 192-IgG-SAP (Cat. #IT-01) into the medial septum, the nucleus basalis magnocellularis, or both to examine the lesioning effect on two cognitive tasks in rats. The data indicate that cholinergic lesions of the basal forebrain produce learning deficits that are task specific, and that learning is affected without corresponding deficits in memory.
