Sex differences in cued fear responses and parvalbumin cell density in the hippocampus following repetitive concussive brain injuries in C57BL/6J mice. by Laura B Tucker, Brian S Winston, Jiong Liu, Alexander G Velosky, Amanda H Fu, Antigone A Grillakis, Joseph T McCabe

“…Parvalbumin-reactive interneurons of the hippocampus have been previously demonstrated to be involved in hippocampal-cortical interactions required for memory consolidation, and it is possible memory changes in the fear-conditioning paradigm following rCBI are the result of more subtle imbalances in excitation and inhibition both within the amygdala and hippocampus, and between more widespread brain regions that are injured following a diffuse brain injury.…”

Role of a redox-based methylation switch in mRNA life cycle ( pre- & post- transcriptional maturation) and protein turnover : Implications in neurological disorders by MALAV SUCHIN TRIVEDI, Richard C Deth

“…Homeostatic synaptic scaling in response to neuronal stimulus or activation, as well as due to changes in cellular niche, is an important phenomenon for memory consolidation, retrieval, and other similar cognitive functions. …”

Alterations of in vivo CA1 network activity in Dp(16)1Yey Down syndrome model mice by Matthieu Raveau, Denis Polygalov, Roman Boehringer, Kenji Amano, Kazuhiro Yamakawa, Thomas J McHugh

“…These changes lead to poorer spatial coding during exploration and less coordinated activity during sharp-wave ripples, events involved in memory consolidation. Further, the density of CA1 inhibitory neurons expressing neuropeptide Y, a population key for the generation of pyramidal cell bursts, were significantly increased in Dp(16)1Yey mice. …”

When Learning Disturbs Memory – Temporal Profile of Retroactive Interference of Learning on Memory Formation by Zrinka Sosic-Vasic, Katrin Hille, Julia Kröner, Manfred Spitzer, Manfred Spitzer, Jürgen Kornmeier, Jürgen Kornmeier, Jürgen Kornmeier

“…Further, fast learners seem to be more affected by interference than slow learners.Discussion: Our results indicate that the first 12 min after learning are highly important for memory consolidation, without a general pattern concerning the precise time point of maximal interference across individuals. …”

The role of bodily self-consciousness in episodic memory of naturalistic events: an immersive virtual reality study by Sylvain Penaud, Delphine Yeh, Alexandre Gaston-Bellegarde, Pascale Piolino

“…Moreover, navigating in the Asynchronous condition had a detrimental impact on incidental event memory, perceptual details, contextual association, subjective sense of remembering, and memory consolidation. In contrast, participants in the No-Body condition were only impaired in egocentric spatial memory and the sense of remembering at ten-day delay. …”

A comparison of two sleep spindle detection methods based on all night averages: individually adjusted versus fixed frequencies by Péter Przemyslaw Ujma, Ferenc eGombos, Lisa eGenzel, Boris Nikolai Konrad, Péter eSimor, Péter eSimor, Axel eSteiger, Martin eDresler, Martin eDresler, Róbert eBódizs, Róbert eBódizs

“…Sleep spindles are frequently studied for their relationship with state and trait cognitive variables, and they are thought to play an important role in sleep-related memory consolidation. Due to their frequent occurrence in NREM sleep, the detection of sleep spindles is only feasible using automatic algorithms, of which a large number is available. …”

Stress enhances the consolidation of extinction memory in a predictive learning task by Tanja eHamacher-Dang, Harald eEngler, Manfred eSchedlowski, Oliver T Wolf

“…Stress is known to modulate learning and memory, with mostly enhancing effects on memory consolidation. However, whether such a consolidation-enhancing effect of acute stress can also be found for extinction memory has not yet been examined in humans. …”

The effect of benign epileptiform discharges of childhood on cognitive function, behavior and speech by E. A. Morozova, M. V. Belousova, D. V. Morozov, M. A. Utkuzova

“…Markedly elevated  CSWS with morphological BEDC affects interneuron connections, which, in turn, alters memory consolidation in mesial temporal regions. The literature analysis  revealed  that children  with BEDC-like epileptic activity require obligatory periodic sleep electroencephalographic control  and dynamic  neuropsychological  evaluation due to  high incidence  of speech, mnestic  and behavioral disorders. …”

Risk factors and prevention of posttraumatic stress disorder in Intensive Care Unit patients by I. Caldas, S. Vieira, I. Vidó

“…Pharmacologic hypothesis should be applied in the first 6 hours of trauma and could be hydrocortisone, as it is thought to be a protective factor for memory consolidation, but the conclusions are not consistent.(6) Conclusions There are a lot of people that develop PTSD in the ICU context who are not diagnosed and therefore not treated. …”

Silencing the Majority of Cerebellar Granule Cells Uncovers Their Essential Role in Motor Learning and Consolidation by Elisa Galliano, Zhenyu Gao, Martijn Schonewille, Boyan Todorov, Esther Simons, Andreea S. Pop, Egidio D’Angelo, Arn M.J.M. van den Maagdenberg, Freek E. Hoebeek, Chris I. De Zeeuw

“…Surprisingly, the overall motor performance was intact, whereas demanding motor learning and memory consolidation tasks were compromised. Our findings indicate that a minority of functionally intact GCs is sufficient for the maintenance of basic motor performance, whereas acquisition and stabilization of sophisticated memories require higher numbers of normal GCs controlling PC firing.…”

Adult zebra finches rehearse highly variable song patterns during sleep by Brent K. Young, Gabriel B. Mindlin, Ezequiel Arneodo, Franz Goller

“…Brain activity during sleep is fairly ubiquitous and the best studied possible function is a role in memory consolidation, including motor memory. One suggested mechanism of how neural activity effects these benefits is through reactivation of neurons in patterns resembling those of the preceding experience. …”

Contrasting Effects of Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors on Reward and Aversive Olfactory Memories in the Honey Bee by Gabrielle A Lockett, Fiona Wilkes, Paul Helliwell, Ryszard Maleszka

“…PB treatment only impaired aversive memory at test when administered 1 h after training, suggesting an effect on memory consolidation specifically. Specific impairment of aversive memory (but not reward memory) by HDAC inhibiting compounds was robust, reproducible, occurred following treatment with three drugs targeting the same mechanism, and is likely to be genuinely due to alterations to memory as sucrose sensitivity and locomotion were unaffected by HDAC inhibitor treatment. …”
