皮质处理网络的胆碱能输入长期以来一直与注意力和自上而下的处理相关。实验和理论研究表明,主嗅球(OB)的胆碱能输入可以调节神经和行为气味辨别。我们实验室和其他实验室之前的实验表明,烟碱受体的阻断会直接损害嗅觉辨别力,而毒蕈碱受体的阻断只会在任务要求变得更具挑战性时才会明显损害嗅觉知觉,例如当使用极低浓度的气味或需要大鼠长时间保持感觉记忆时。为了进一步研究毒蕈碱信号在 OB 中的作用,我们使用基于挖掘的行为范例开发了嗅觉延迟匹配样本任务。我们发现大鼠能够维持 10-100 秒的强大短期气味记忆。为了研究毒蕈碱信号在任务执行中的作用,我们将东莨菪碱双侧注入OB中。我们发现,高剂量的东莨菪碱 (38 mM) 会损害所有测试延迟的任务表现,包括无延迟的基线条件,而较低剂量(7.6 mM 和 22.8 mM)则没有可测量的影响。这些结果表明,即使没有延迟,样本匹配任务的一般执行也至少部分依赖于 OB 中的毒蕈碱信号传导。
Cholinergic inputs to cortical processing networks have long been associated with attentional and top-down processing. Experimental and theoretical studies suggest that cholinergic inputs to the main olfactory bulb (OB) can modulate both neural and behavioral odor discrimination. Previous experiments from our laboratory and others demonstrate that blockade of nicotinic receptors directly impairs olfactory discrimination, whereas blockade of muscarinic receptors only measurably impairs olfactory perception when task demands are made more challenging, such as when very low-concentration odors are used or rats are required to maintain sensory memory over long durations. To further investigate the role of muscarinic signaling in the OB, we developed an olfactory delayed match-to-sample task using a digging-based behavioral paradigm. We find that rats are able to maintain robust short-term odor memory for 10–100 s. To investigate the role of muscarinic signaling in task performance, we bilaterally infused scopolamine into the OB. We find that high dosages of scopolamine (38 mM) impair performance on the task across all delays tested, including the baseline condition with no delay, whereas lower dosages (7.6 mM and 22.8 mM) had no measureable effects. These results indicate that general execution of the match-to-sample task, even with no delay, is at least partially dependent on muscarinic signaling in the OB.
