Cold pressor stress impairs performance on working memory tasks requiring executive functions in healthy young men.

29 Sep 2009 The current study investigated the effects of cold pressor stress (CPS) on 2 working memory (WM) tasks differing in the demand they put on maintenance and executive processing. For this purpose 72 healthy young men were exposed either to a stress ... Read more...

Deletion of glycine transporter 1 (GlyT1) in forebrain neurons facilitates reversal learning: enhanced cognitive adaptability?

29 Sep 2009 Local availability of glycine near N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) is partly regulated by neuronal glycine transporter 1 (GlyT1), which can therefore modulate NMDAR function because binding to the glycine site of the NMDAR is necessary for ... Read more...

Longitudinal study of the transition from healthy aging to Alzheimer disease.

29 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: Detection of the earliest cognitive changes signifying Alzheimer disease is difficult. OBJECTIVE: To model the cognitive decline in preclinical Alzheimer disease. DESIGN: Longitudinal archival study comparing individuals who became ... Read more...
