Acute neuroinflammation, sickness behavior and working memory responses to acute systemic LPS challenge following noradrenergic lesion in mice
(2021)Locus coeruleus (LC)-derived noradrenaline is important in cognition and decreases with age, but the impact of prior noradrenaline deficiency on vulnerability to inflammation-induced acute cognitive dysfunction is ... -
Amyloid precursor protein knockdown by siRNA impairs spontaneous alternation in adult mice.
(2007)The cleavage-product of amyloid precursor protein (APP) constitutes the core component of plaques found in the brains of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. APP is ubiquitously expressed and its precise physiological functions ... -
A functional MRI study of the influence of practice on component processes of working memory.
(Elsevier, 2004)Previous neuroimaging studies have shown that neural activity changes with task practice. The types of changes reported have been inconsistent, however, and the neural mechanisms involved remain unclear. In this study, we ... -
He said, she said: Autism spectrum diagnosis and gender differentially affect relationships between executive functions and social communication
(2019)Autism spectrum disorder is characterized by difficulties with social communication, with a preponderance in males. Evidence supports a relationship between metacognitive executive functions (e.g. planning, ... -
Interaction between striatal volume and DAT1 polymorphism predicts working memory development during adolescence
(2018)There is considerable inter-individual variability in the rate at which working memory (WM) develops during childhood and adolescence, but the neural and genetic basis for these differences are poorly understood. ... -
Is 'Clinical' insight the same as 'Cognitive' insight in schizophrenia?
(Cambridge University Press, 2009)Poor insight is associated with impaired cognitive function in psychosis. Whether poor clinical insight overlaps with other aspects of self-awareness in schizophrenia, such as cognitive self-awareness, is unclear. We ... -
A NOS1 variant implicated in cognitive performance influences evoked neural responses during a hight density EEG study of early visual perception.
(Wiley Open Access, 2012)Background: The nitric oxide synthasase‐1 gene (NOS1) has been implicated in mental disorders including schizophrenia and variation in cognition. The NOS1 variant rs6490121 identified in a genome wide association study of ...
