Retrograde amnesia for passive avoidance produced by stimulation of dorsal hippocampus

Retrograde amnesia for passive avoidance produced by stimulation of dorsal hippocampus

Retrograde amnesia (RA) was produced in rats receiving low-level hippocampal stimulation (ESB) immediately following footshock (FS) in a one-trial passive avoidance situation. Rats given ESB without FS showed no avoidance and those receiving FS without ESB avoided maximally. The role of hippocampal...

Zusammenfassung:Retrograde amnesia (RA) was produced in rats receiving low-level hippocampal stimulation (ESB) immediately following footshock (FS) in a one-trial passive avoidance situation. Rats given ESB without FS showed no avoidance and those receiving FS without ESB avoided maximally. The role of hippocampal after-discharges in RA is discussed.
