Invertebrates as models of learning and memory: investigating neural and molecular mechanisms

Veronica Rivi et al.

Summary: This Commentary discusses the use of invertebrates as model organisms for studying learning and memory mechanisms. It provides a brief overview of the contributions made by mollusks in understanding memory encoding and storage in the nervous system, and describes the cognitive abilities of certain insect species. The article also explores the use of planarians in studying memory dynamics during brain regeneration, and highlights the role of stressful stimuli in memory formation. Additionally, it focuses on the emerging evidence of invertebrates displaying emotions and the opportunity it presents for studying the interaction between stress, emotions, and cognition at a neural and molecular level.

No food for thought: an intermediate level of food deprivation enhances memory in Lymnaea stagnalis

Diana Kagan et al.

Summary: Nutritional status plays a crucial role in cognitive functioning, with disagreements on the impact of food deprivation on learning and memory. This study examined the effects of different lengths of food deprivation on behavior and gene expression. Results showed that 1 day of deprivation had no significant effects, while 3 days of deprivation enhanced long-term memory formation and influenced the expression of neuroplasticity, stress, and serotonin-related genes. These findings provide insights into the relationship between nutrition, molecular mechanisms, and cognitive function.

Novel taste, sickness, and memory: Lipopolysaccharide to induce a Garcia-like effect in inbred and wild strains of Lymnaea stagnalis

Veronica Rivi et al.

Summary: Food is essential for survival and brings pleasure. The Garcia effect describes the phenomenon where animals develop aversion to a novel food after experiencing sickness. This study showed that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced a Garcia-like effect in a species of snails, leading to long-lasting feeding suppression. The results also revealed strain-specific variations in memory duration and suggested potential implications in understanding cognitive traits and the immune-central nervous system interaction.

Prey populations with different predation histories show differences in behavioral and transcriptional effects under acute predation threat

Veronica Rivi et al.

Summary: By studying two different freshwater snails (W snails and Margo snails), it was found that there are gene expression and behavioral differences when they are exposed to predator scent. Only W snails showed behavioral recognition and formed configural learning memory in response to predator cues, while Margo snails did not. This suggests a possible association between gene expression differences and learning and memory formation.

Nature versus nurture in heat stress induced learning between inbred and outbred populations of Lymnaea stagnalis

Veronica Rivi et al.

Summary: Changing environmental conditions can lead to microevolution of adaptive traits under selection pressure. This study explores the role of thermal stress on neuronal plasticity and memory formation using two populations of pond snails, and finds differential effects of heat stress on memory formation in wild and lab bred snails.

Aspirin relieves the calcification of aortic smooth muscle cells by enhancing the heat shock response

Quanquan Shen et al.

Summary: Aspirin can partially alleviate vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) calcification by regulating the expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and heat shock protein 90 (HSP90). Blocking HSP70 or HSP90 inhibitors can partially weaken the anti-calcification effect of aspirin.

Too Hot to Eat: Wild and Lab-Bred Lymnaea stagnalis Differ in Feeding Response Following Repeated Heat Exposure

Veronica Rivi et al.

Summary: This study found that laboratory-reared snails showed a severe suppression in feeding behavior when exposed to a seven-day period of acute heat shock, while wild snails raised in similar laboratory conditions did not show any changes. The different responses might be due to inadvertent selection against heat tolerance in laboratory-reared snails and the wild snails' increased tolerance and resilience to heat.

Identification and characterization of the kynurenine pathway in the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis

Benatti Cristina et al.

Summary: Dysregulation of the kynurenine pathway is involved in various human diseases and disorders. Lymnaea stagnalis (LS), an invertebrate model, is a valuable tool for studying the complexity of this pathway. The researchers characterized the kynurenine pathway in LS, confirming the sequence conservation of key enzymes and identifying several compounds in the LS hemolymph.

Transcriptome analysis provides genome annotation and expression profiles in the central nervous system of Lymnaea stagnalis at different ages

Martina Rosato et al.

Summary: The pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis has been widely used as a model organism for neurobiology studies due to its simple CNS. This study provides the first age-specific transcriptome analysis and gene annotation for young, adult, and old L. stagnalis. The results reveal distinct gene clusters, differentially expressed genes, and enriched pathways in the CNS of snails at different ages.

Long-term memory of configural learning is enhanced via CREB upregulation by the flavonoid quercetin in Lymnaea stagnalis

Anuradha Batabyal et al.

Summary: Animals respond to acute stress by modifying behavior and physiology. The plant flavonoid quercetin enhances memory performance in Lymnaea stagnalis during configural learning, lasting up to 48 hours. Exposure to quercetin upregulates the transcription factor CREB1 in the central nervous system of Lymnaea, positively impacting long-term memory formation.
