Glucocorticoid receptor activation in the rat nucleus of the solitary tract facilitates memory consolidation: involvement of the basolateral amygdala
Abstract
These experiments examined the involvement of glucocorticoid receptors (GRs or type II) located in the A2-noradrenergic cell group of the rat nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) in modulating memory storage. Bilateral intra-NTS infusions (0.5 microL) of the specific GR agonist RU 28362 (11beta, 17beta-dihydroxy-6, 21-dimethyl-17alpha-pregna-4,6-trien-20yn-3-one), in doses ranging from 0.01 to 10.0 ng, immediately after inhibitory avoidance training produced a dose-dependent enhancement of 48 h retention performance. Infusions of 0.1 or 1.0 ng of the agonist enhanced retention, whereas lower or higher doses were ineffective. Post-training infusions of the GR antagonist RU 38486 [17beta-hydroxy-11beta-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-17alpha-(1-pr opynyl)-o estra-4,9-dien-3-one, 0.01-10.0 ng] into the NTS did not significantly affect retention performance, but shifted the dose-response effects of post-training systemic injections of the synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone to the right. These results indicate that activation of GRs in the NTS can influence memory formation for inhibitory avoidance training, and suggest that the effects of circulating glucocorticoids on memory are mediated, in part, by an activation of GRs in the NTS. Additionally, pretraining infusions of the beta1-adrenergic antagonist atenolol (0.5 microg in 0.2 microL) into the basolateral nucleus of the amygdala (BLA), a brain structure which receives noradrenergic projections from the NTS and is implicated in mem…

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
