英文摘要
DESCRIPTION (Adapted from applicant's abstract): The present proposal seeks
to address how multiple structures interact to mediate active navigation.
The ability to learn and remember locations of important resources is
absolutely critical for every animal's ability to survive. As such, it is
of great importance to understand how neural systems interact to mediate
this behavior. The proposed studies will evaluate cortical contributions to
processing of spatial information in hippocampus and limbic thalamus. Past
anatomical, lesion and electrophysiological data suggest the retrosplenial
cortex may make unique contributions to spatial learning. It is
hypothesized here that retrosplenial cortex importantly contributes to the
integration of visual and self movement information in limbic structures
thought to be involved in navigation. To test this hypothesis, permanent
lesions and temporary inactivation of retrosplenial cortex will be combined
with chronic single unit recording from hippocampus and thalamus during
active navigation. Behavioral probe trials will be used to identify changes
in behavioral strategies following removal of retrosplenial cortex. It is
predicted that in the absence of retrosplenial cortex the integration of
visual and self movement information will be diminished in spatial
correlates recorded from thalamus and hippocampus and behavioral data will
reflect similar changes in behavioral strategies underlying spatial memory
performance.
