Transfer effects and conditional learning in rats with selective lesions of medial septal/diagonal band cholinergic neurons.

Janisiewicz AM, Baxter MG (2003) Transfer effects and conditional learning in rats with selective lesions of medial septal/diagonal band cholinergic neurons. Behav Neurosci 117(6):1342-1352. doi: 10.1037/0735-7044.117.6.1342

Summary: Conditional learning appears to require cholinergic input to the hippocampus and cingulate cortex. Using a total of 0.5 µl of 0.12 µg/µl 192-Saporin (Cat. #IT-01) injected into the medial septal area of rats, the authors investigated the role of cholinergic input in conditional learning. The results suggest that cholinergic neurons of the medial septum/vertical limb of the diagonal band play a role in the transfer of behavioral experience rather than in conditional learning itself.
