Naloxone, but not flupenthixol, disrupts the development of conditioned ejaculatory preference in the male rat.

29 Sep 2009 Male rats display a conditioned preference to ejaculate with a female bearing an odor paired previously with copulation to ejaculation. The present study examined the role of endogenous opioid and dopamine systems in this preference. Male rats ... Read more...

Retention time of attenuated response to diacetyl after pre-exposure to diacetyl in Caenorhabditis elegans.

30 Jul 2009 The retention time of attenuated chemotactic response to continuous presentation of odorant diacetyl was investigated in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. The level of chemotactic response of nematodes pre-exposed to diacetyl for 90 min was ... Read more...

Consolidation of an extinction memory depends on the unconditioned stimulus magnitude previously experienced during training.

27 Jul 2009 Here, we examine the role of the magnitude of the unconditioned stimulus (US) during classical conditioning in consolidation processes after memory retrieval. We varied the US durations during training and we test the impact of these variations on ... Read more...
