The Effect of Surgical Procedure in the Nasal Cavity on the Passive Avoidance Conditioning and the Hypothalamic Level of Monoamines in Rats
AbstractA rat biological model of septoplasty was used to study the effect of surgery on passive avoidance conditioning (PAC). Septoplasty was shown...

The neurocomputational link between defensive cardiac states and approach-avoidance arbitration under threat
Avoidance, a hallmark of anxiety-related psychopathology, often comes at a cost; avoiding threat may forgo the possibility of a reward. Theories...

A history of avoidance does not impact extinction learning in male rats
Pervasive avoidance is one of the central symptoms of all anxiety-related disorders. In treatment, avoidance behaviors are typically discouraged...

Avoidance, confusion or solitude? Modelling how noise pollution affects whale migration
Many baleen whales are renowned for their acoustic communication. Under pristine conditions, this communication can plausibly occur across hundreds...

Predator-avoidance behaviour of target and non-target temperate reef fishes is lower in areas protected from fishing
The effects of hunting on predator-avoidance behaviour are increasingly being recognised on land but have received less attention in marine systems....

Cryofouling avoidance in the Antarctic scallop Adamussium colbecki
The presence of supercooled water in polar regions causes anchor ice to grow on submerged objects, generating costly problems for engineered...

Neural fatigue by passive induction: repeated stimulus exposure results in cognitive fatigue and altered representations in task-relevant networks
Cognitive fatigue is defined by a reduced capacity to perform mental tasks. Despite its pervasiveness, the underlying neural mechanisms remain...

Effects of Diazepam, Piracetam, and Mexidol on Passive Avoidance Response
AbstractEffects of the anxiolytic diazepam and nootropics piracetam and mexidol on passive avoidance conditioning (PAC) in rats were compared in...

Molecular and neurocircuitry mechanisms of social avoidance
Humans and animals live in social relationships shaped by actions of approach and avoidance. Both are crucial for normal physical and mental...

Peculiarities of Fear Memory Extinction in Male and Female Disc1-Q31L Mice
AbstractDepressive disorders are common psychopathologies highly comorbid with other mental diseases, especially post-traumatic stress disorder, with...

Vitamin C Alleviates Neurobehavioral Deficits, IGF1 Expression, and Neuronal Damage Induced by Chronic Social Isolation Stress in the Hippocampus of Adult Male Rats
Social isolation stress (SIS) is associated with emotional and cognitive deficits. Here, we examined the impact of prolonged treatment with vitamin C...

Toward Passive Acoustic Monitoring of Lemurs: Using an Affordable Open-Source System to Monitor Phaner Vocal Activity and Density
Develo** new cost-effective methods for monitoring the distribution and abundance of species is essential for conservation biology. Passive...

Transgenerational Effects of Prenatal Stress on Memory and Expression of the Insulin-Like Growth Factor 2 Gene in the Offspring Brain
AbstractPrenatal maternal stress disrupts offspring behavior and cognitive abilities not only in the first but also in subsequent...

Predation of archival tagged Dolly Varden, Salvelinus malma, reveals predator avoidance behaviour and tracks feeding events by presumed beluga whale, Delphinapterus leucas, in the Beaufort Sea
BackgroundWe report compelling evidence suggesting a predation event of a pop-up satellite archival tagged anadromous Dolly Varden ( Salvelinus malma )...

Effects of Hippocampal Microinjection of Irisin, an Exercise-Induced Myokine, on Spatial and Passive Avoidance Learning and Memory in Male Rats
Irisin is a soluble and exercise-induced myokine and/or adipokine hormone; generated by FNDC5 (a gene precursor) and also, it can ameliorate both...

Neuroprotective effect of newly synthesized 4-aminopyridine derivatives on cuprizone-induced demyelination in mice—a behavioral and immunohistochemical study
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of newly synthesized derivatives of 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) on cuprizone-induced model of brain...
