Acquisition of spatial search strategies and reversal learning in the Morris water maze depend on disparate brain functional connectivity in mice
Open accessAbstract
Learning has been proposed to coincide with changes in connections between brain regions. In the present study, we used resting-state fMRI (rsfMRI) to map brain-wide functional connectivity (FC) in mice that were trained in the hidden-platform version of the Morris water maze. C57BL6 mice were investigated in a small animal MRI scanner following 2, 10, or 15 days of acquisition learning, or 5 days of reversal learning. Spatial learning coincided with progressive and changing FC between telencephalic regions that have been implemented in spatial learning (such as hippocampus, cingulate, visual, and motor cortex). Search strategy assessment demonstrated that the use of cognitively advanced spatial strategies correlated positively with extensive telencephalic connectivity, whereas non-spatial strategies correlated negatively with connectivity. FC patterns were different and more extensive after reversal learning compared with after extended acquisition learning, which could explain why reversal learning has been shown to be more sensitive to subtle functional defects.

Acquisition of spatial search strategies and reversal learning in the MWM depend on functional connectivity of the hippocampus.
“A study combining neuroimaging and behavior found that acquisition of spatial search strategies and reversal learning in the MWM depend on functional connectivity of the hippocampus (Shah et al., 2019).”
From Multimodal MRI combined with RNA sequencing reveals pathological signatures in the 9-month-old 3×Tg-AD mouse brain (2026) · cites this paper as Shah et al., 2019
The Discussion (page unavailable) describes hippocampal connections as important during acquisition and reports hippocampal connectivity after reversal learning. The results also link hippocampal connectivity with spatial strategies after reversal. However, the study reports associations across broader brain networks, not a demonstrated dependence of both learning processes specifically on hippocampal connectivity. (LLM, conf=0.84)

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.
