Includes bibliographical references.
1. Introduction / Alfredo Meneses -- 2. Neurotransmitters and memory : cholinergic, glutamatergic, GaBAergic, dopaminergic, serotonergic, signaling, and memory / Alfredo Meneses -- 3. The role of GABA in memory processes / Antonella Gasbarri and Assunta Pompili -- 4. Involvement of glutamate in learning and memory / Antonella Gasbarri and Assunta Pompili -- 5. Dopamine and memory / Ryan T. LaLumiere -- 6. Unpacking memory processes : using the attribute model to design optimal memory tests for rodent models / Michael R. Hunsaker -- 7. Protein synthesis and memory : a word of caution / Roberto Agustin Prado-Alcala [and three others] -- 8. Basic elements of signal transduction pathways involved in chemical neurotransmission / Claudia Gonzalez-Espinosa and Fabiola Guzman-Mejia -- 9. A role for learning and memory in the expression of an innate behavior : the case of copulatory behavior / Gabriela Rodriguez-Manzo and Ana Canseco-Alba -- 10. Memory disorders : the diabetes case / Gustavo Liy-Salmeron and Shely Azrad.
Identification of Neural Markers Accompanying Memory is a fresh and novel volume of memory study, providing up-to-date and comprehensive information for both students and researchers focused on the identification of neural markers accompanying memory. Contributions by experts in specific areas of memory study provide background on and definitions of memory, memory alterations, and the brain areas involved in memory and its related processes, such as consolidation, retrieval, forgetting, amnesia, and antiamnesiac effects. With coverage of the principal neurotransmitters related to memory, brain disorders presenting memory alterations, and available treatments-and with discussion of neural markers as new targets for the treatment of memory alterations-Identification of Neural Markers Accompanying Memory is a necessary and timely work for researchers in this growing field. Discusses the alterations of memory in diverse diseasesIncludes coverage from a basic introduction of memory investigationReviews brain areas and neurotransmitters involved in memoryDiscusses behavioral models of memoryContains novel insights into the complexity of signaling and memoryIncludes the neuropharmacological and neurobiological bases of memory.
