摘要: 一日龄小鸡,分别接受不同浓度的回避性刺激物邻氨基苯甲酸甲酯(MeA)训练,间隔一定时间后测试记忆保持。主要结果为:5%和20%MeA训练,分别使动物记忆保持15分钟和50分钟左右,相当于记忆形成多阶段模型中的STM和ITM阶段。40%MeA训练,记忆保持到训练后8-10小时,相当于不依赖新糖蛋白合成的LTM形成的早期阶段。只有60%以上浓度的MeA训练才使记忆保持至少24小时。上述结果提示,利用弱化训练的方法,不仅可以将STM,ITM和LTM分离开,而且可把LTM形成的早期阶段分离出来独立研究,增加了对LTM新的理解,为进一步探讨记忆形成机制提供了一条新的途径。

Abstract: Day - old chicks were trained with varying concentrations of a taste aversant, methyl anthranilate (MeA) , and tested for retention at different time - points after training. Chicks trained with 5% and 20%MeA preserved memory about 15 minutes and 50 minutes respectively , fitting the STM and ITM of the multiple - stage model of memory formation, while those trained with 40%MeA yielded high retention level up to 8 - 10 hours, this time -course appeared to correspond with the glycoprotein - synthesis - independent stage of the LTM. Only MeA over 60% resulted in good reten- tion lasting at least 24 hours. The results demonstrated that the weak - learning. paradigm not only could dissociate the traditional three main stages of memory forma- tion (STM, ITM, LTM), but also could differentiate the LTM into an early and a later phase. This could open a new approach to the further investigations of the mechanisms of memory formation
