Journal Article
Nelson, A. .., & Cassaday, H. (2019). Data showing regional differences in rat brain monoaminergic function. Data in Brief, 27, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dib.2019.104814

Chemical neurotransmitters (such as dopamine) modulate cognitive function via ascending projections to various cortical and sub-cortical brain regions. This report describes and links to a relatively large dataset (up to N=112) compiled from control... Read More about Data showing regional differences in rat brain monoaminergic function.

Intraperitoneal 8-OH-DPAT reduces competition from contextual but not discrete conditioning cues (2019)
Journal Article
Cassaday, H., & Thur, K. (2019). Intraperitoneal 8-OH-DPAT reduces competition from contextual but not discrete conditioning cues. Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, 187, 1-6. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pbb.2019.172797

The effects of the serotonergic (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) agonist 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT; 0.2 and 0.4 mg/kg i.p.) were examined in trace conditioning (Experiment 1) and overshadowing (Experiment 2) procedures. Both experi... Read More about Intraperitoneal 8-OH-DPAT reduces competition from contextual but not discrete conditioning cues.

EMD386088 (5 mg/kg) has no effect on latent inhibition shown to both light and noise stimuli (2019)
Journal Article
Cassaday, H. J., & Thur, K. E. (2020). EMD386088 (5 mg/kg) has no effect on latent inhibition shown to both light and noise stimuli. Journal of Psychopharmacology, 34(1), 145-147. https://doi.org/10.1177/0269881119882855

Activation of 5-HT6 receptors stimulates attentional switching and 5-HT6 receptor antagonists are putative drugs for psychosis. Latent inhibition (LI) provides a pre-clinical model of attentional switching and ‘antipsychotic-like’ action and is known...

Age-related differences in appetitive trace conditioning and novel object recognition procedures (2019)
Journal Article
Marshall, H., Pezze, M., Fone, K., & Cassaday, H. (2019). Age-related differences in appetitive trace conditioning and novel object recognition procedures. Neurobiology of Learning and Memory, 164, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nlm.2019.107041

Appetitive trace conditioning (TC) was examined over 6 months in younger-adult (2-8 months) and middle-aged (12-18 months) male Wistar RccHan rats to test for early age-related impairment in working memory. Novel object recognition (NOR) was included... Read More about Age-related differences in appetitive trace conditioning and novel object recognition procedures.
