α 2 -Adrenergic Mechanisms in Prefrontal Cortex Associated with Cognitive Decline in Aged Nonhuman Primates

Arnsten, Amy F. T., Goldman-Rakic, Patricia S.·1985·Science

Abstract

This study provides evidence that the α 2 -adrenergic receptor agonist clonidine ameliorates the cognitive deficits exhibited by aged nonhuman primates through drug actions at α 2 receptors. Furthermore, pharmacological profiles in animals with lesions restricted to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex indicate that this area may be the site of action for some of clonidine's beneficial effects. These results demonstrate that α-adrenergic systems contribute to cognitive function and suggest a new strategy for treating memory disorders in aged humans.

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.
