Effect of lepidium meyenii (Maca) on spatial memory and brain oxidative damage of ovariectomised-rats exposed to mobile phone
(School of Pharmaceutical and Food Sciences, University of Antioquia, 2021)
Background: Oxidative stress, genetic expression changes, and decomposition of the blood-brain barrier have been shown to be caused by exposure to radiofrequency radiation (RFR); therefore, the search for drugs or food ...
Insulin-like growth factor-I gene therapy increases hippocampal neurogenesis, astrocyte branching and improves spatial memory in female aging rats
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-05)
In rats, learning and memory performance decline during aging, which makes this rodent species a suitable model to evaluate therapeutic strategies of potential value for correcting age‐related cognitive deficits. Some of ...
Impaired spatial working memory and reduced hippocampal neuronal density in a rat model of neurocysticercosis
(Frontiers, 2023)
Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is the most common parasitic disease affecting the nervous system and is a leading cause of acquired epilepsy worldwide, as well as cognitive impairment, especially affecting memory. The aim of ...
Sex differences in retention after a visual or a spatial discrimination learning task in brood parasitic shiny cowbirds
(Elsevier Science, 2015-10)
Females of avian brood parasites, like the shiny cowbird (Molothrus bonariensis), locate host nests and on subsequent days return to parasitize them. This ecological pressure for remembering the precise location of multiple ...
Cognitive impairment and morphological changes in the dorsal hippocampus of very old female rats
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015-09)
The hippocampus, a medial temporal lobe structure necessary for the formation of spatial memory, is particularly affected by both normal and pathologic aging. In previous studies, we observed a significant age-related ...
Umbilical cord cell therapy improves spatial memory in aging rats
(Springer, 2019-08-15)
There is a growing interest in the potential of adult stem cells for implementing regenerative medicine in the brain. We assessed the effect of intracerebroventricular (icv) administration of human umbilical cord perivascular ...
Alteration of neurotrophin and cytokine expression in lymphocytes as novel peripheral markers of spatial memory deficits induced by prenatal stress
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-05)
Much evidence has suggested that early life adversity can have a lasting effect on behavior. The aim of this study was to explore the impact of prenatal exposure to stress on cognition in adult life and how it impacts ...
