Hippocampal AMPA receptors mediate the impairment of spatial learning and memory in prenatally stressed offspring rats

Dan Yao et al.

Summary: Prenatal stress can negatively affect learning and memory in offspring, but chewing can alleviate these effects. The hippocampal AMPA receptors play a crucial role in mediating the impairment of spatial learning and memory in prenatally stressed offspring, and chewing during prenatal stress can ameliorate memory deficits.

Impairments of Long-Term Synaptic Plasticity in the Hippocampus of Young Rats during the Latent Phase of the Lithium-Pilocarpine Model of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

Tatyana Y. Postnikova et al.

Summary: Status epilepticus (SE) causes persistent abnormalities in neuronal network functioning, leading to worsening epileptic seizures. Using the lithium-pilocarpine model in rats, this study found that SE resulted in hippocampal and dentate gyrus neuron death, impaired synaptic plasticity, astrogliosis, and weakened NMDAR-dependent signaling, leading to attenuation of long-term potentiation (LTP). The study suggests that disruption in neuron-astrocyte interactions critically impairs synaptic plasticity.

Object recognition and Morris water maze to detect cognitive impairment from mild hippocampal damage in rats: A reflection based on the literature and experience

Lilian Juliana Lissner et al.

Summary: Object recognition (OR) and the Morris water maze (MWM) are classical tasks used to assess memory parameters in rodents, involving hippocampus and prefrontal cortex connections. Despite controversy, these tests offer practical tools for evaluating hippocampal-related memory deficits in rats, with minimal manageable stressful conditions.

Summary: The Morris Water Maze (MWM) behavioral test is a universal method for testing cognitive functions in experimental rodents, and it can provide more information about brain function by analyzing the behavior of experimental animals. Different MWM protocols can offer more insights into normal cognitive function.

Alterations in mRNA and Protein Expression of Glutamate Receptor Subunits Following Pentylenetetrazole-induced Acute Seizures in Young Rats

Anna A. Kovalenko et al.

Summary: Seizures can severely impact brain function and development, with disturbances of the glutamatergic system considered a critical mechanism of neurological abnormalities. Analysis of NMDA and AMPA receptor subunit expression in different brain regions using a rat model revealed notable changes in the dorsal hippocampus, deepening our understanding of post-seizure disturbances in the developing brain. The study confirms that although various brain structures are involved in seizures, the hippocampus is the most vulnerable.

Summary: This study found that prenatal hyperhomocysteinemia can lead to neuroinflammation, glial activation, and neuronal death in the hippocampus of infant rats, potentially leading to cognitive disorders later in life.
