The role of emotional processing and regulation in the link between insomnia and depression by Tse, KYK

“…Findings suggest that overnight memory consolidation and emotional reactivity for negative stimuli are not affected in insomnia. …”

Distinct roles of dopamine and subthalamic nucleus in learning and probabilistic decision making. by Coulthard, E, Bogacz, R, Javed, S, Mooney, L, Murphy, G, Keeley, S, Whone, A

“…Thus, we demonstrate distinct mechanisms for two important facets of human decision making: first, a role for dopamine in memory consolidation, and second, the critical importance of the subthalamic nucleus in successful decision making when multiple pieces of information must be combined.…”

Perisomatic-targeting interneurons control the initiation of hippocampal population bursts by Ellender, T

“…It is thought that this activity, which occurs during rest and sleep, is involved in memory consolidation. The cellular mechanisms underlying the initiation of these replay events are not well understood. …”

Functional differentiation along the dorso-ventral axis of the hippocampus by Manganaro, A

“…During exploration, theta oscillations (4-12 Hz) are prominent in the hippocampus, whereas during sleep and rest irregular sharp wave/ripple (SWR) events occur spontaneously in the hippocampus and may support memory consolidation. To date, the ventral sub-region of the rodents hippocampus, has received less attention relative to the more accessible dorsal part. …”

Reactivation and reinstatement of hippocampal assemblies by van de Ven, G

“…Specifically, I performed a causal test of the long-standing hypothesis that the offline reactivation of new, memory-representing cell assemblies supports memory consolidation by stabilizing those assemblies and increasing the likelihood of their later reinstatement—and therefore presumably of memory recall.…”

Lack of drug-induced post-retrieval amnesia for auditory fear memories in rats by Laura Luyten, Anna Elisabeth Schnell, Natalie Schroyens, Tom Beckers

“…Abstract Background Long-term memory formation is generally assumed to involve the permanent storage of recently acquired memories, making them relatively insensitive to disruption, a process referred to as memory consolidation. However, when retrieved under specific circumstances, consolidated fear memories are thought to return to a labile state, thereby opening a window for modification (e.g., attenuation) of the memory. …”

The thalamic reuniens is associated with consolidation of non-spatial memory too by Jennifer J. Hamilton, Jennifer J. Hamilton, Jennifer J. Hamilton, John C. Dalrymple-Alford, John C. Dalrymple-Alford, John C. Dalrymple-Alford, John C. Dalrymple-Alford

“…This anatomical relationship positions the Re as an ideal candidate to facilitate memory consolidation. However, there is no evidence that this role extends beyond spatial memory and contextual fear memory, which are both strongly associated with hippocampal function. …”

Non-REM sleep in major depressive disorder by Leonore Bovy, Frederik D. Weber, Indira Tendolkar, Guillén Fernández, Michael Czisch, Axel Steiger, Marcel Zeising, Martin Dresler

“…Overnight procedural memory consolidation was impaired in medicated patients and associated with lower sleep spindle density. …”

Sleep and Epilepsy Link by Plasticity by Péter Halász, Anna Szűcs

“…MTLE links to the memory-system, where epileptic transformation results in a switch of normal sharp wave-ripples to epileptic spikes and pathological high frequency oscillations, compromising sleep-related memory consolidation. Absence epilepsy (AE) and juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) belong to the corticothalamic system. …”

The Default Mode Network Supports Episodic Memory in Cognitively Unimpaired Elderly Individuals: Different Contributions to Immediate Recall and Delayed Recall by Lijuan Huo, Lijuan Huo, Rui Li, Rui Li, Pengyun Wang, Pengyun Wang, Zhiwei Zheng, Zhiwei Zheng, Juan Li, Juan Li

“…These results suggest that the DMN plays different roles in memory retrieval across different retention intervals, and connections between the DMN regions contribute to memory consolidation of past events in healthy older people.…”

Motor Sequence Learning Is Associated With Hippocampal Subfield Volume in Humans With Medial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy by Jinyi Long, Yanyun Feng, HongPeng Liao, Quan Zhou, M. A. Urbin

“…Objectives: Medial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) is characterized by decreased hippocampal volume, which results in motor memory consolidation impairments. However, the extent to which motor memory acquisition are affected in humans with mTLE remains poorly understood. …”

Ill-Defined Problem Solving Does Not Benefit From Daytime Napping by Małgorzata Hołda, Anna Głodek, Malwina Dankiewicz-Berger, Dagna Skrzypińska, Barbara Szmigielska

“…However, while sleep-related memory consolidation seems to be well-grounded, with regard to the impact of sleep on problem solving, existing research yields mixed and rather inconclusive results. …”

Childhood adversity and acute stress vulnerability at adulthood: The mediating role of sleep by R. Admon

“…Third, inefficient sleep pre and post exposure to acute stress was shown to increase the likelihood for maladaptive outcome, potently by impairing critical processes that occur during sleep as arousal regulation and memory consolidation. Objectives To date, very few studies integrated these independent lines of research. …”

Acute Physiology and Neurologic Outcomes after Brain Injury in SCOP/PHLPP1 KO Mice by Travis C. Jackson, C. Edward Dixon, Keri Janesko-Feldman, Vincent Vagni, Shawn E. Kotermanski, Edwin K. Jackson, Patrick M. Kochanek

“…PHLPP1) regulates long-term memory consolidation in the brain. Using a mouse model of controlled cortical impact (CCI) we tested if (1) brain tissue levels of SCOP/PHLPP1 increase after a traumatic brain injury (TBI), and (2) if SCOP/PHLPP1 gene knockout (KO) mice have improved (or worse) neurologic outcomes. …”

Sleep Facilitates Problem Solving With No Additional Gain Through Targeted Memory Reactivation by Felipe Beijamini, Felipe Beijamini, Anthony Valentin, Roland Jäger, Jan Born, Jan Born, Susanne Diekelmann, Susanne Diekelmann

“…These changes may generate new knowledge such as gaining insight into solutions for problem solving. targeted memory reactivation (TMR) uses learning-associated cues, such as sounds or odors, which have been shown to improve memory consolidation when re-applied during sleep. Here we tested whether TMR during slow wave sleep (SWS) and/or rapid eye movement (REM) sleep increases problem solving. …”
