Perseverative responding and hyperphagia following entorhinal lesions in cats.

Abstract: Cats with large bilateral lesions limited to entorhinal cortex were impaired on the reversal but not the original learning of position habits, displayed deficient passive-avoidance behavior, were hyperactive in the open field, and were hyperphagic for some days after the surgery. The lesions had no effect on the acquisition or the punishment extinction of a one-way activeavoidance response. Control experiments showed that effects of entorhinectomy on position-habit reversals and open-field activity were not se… Show more

“…Despite differences in the relevant motive (the one underlying the response to be suppressed), the apparatus, and the retention measures, the results of the current study are generally in accord with earlier reports dealing with the effects of local brain damage on retention (and/or learning) of more conventional passive avoidance tasks. Correspondences were observed in connection with lesions to the frontal cortex (Kaada, Rasmussen, & Kveim, 1962), occipital cortex (Wilson & Vardaris, 1972), hippocampus (Kimura, 1958;Isaacson & Wickelgren, 1962;Wishart & Morgenson, 1970), septofornix area (deCastro & Hall, 1975;Thomas, 1972;Wishart & Morgenson, 1970), entorhinosubicular area (Entingh, 1971;Ross, Walsh, & Grossman, 1973), amygdala (Nagel & Kemble, 1976), medial hypothalamus (Kaada et al, 1962), medial forebrain bundle (Heybach & Coover, 1976;Kaada et al, 1962), anterior and/or medial thalamus (Gerbrandt, 1965;Kaada et al, 1962), interpeduncular nucleus (Wilson, Mitchell, & Van Hoesen, 1972), central tegmentum (Wilson ef al., 1972), dorsal mesencephalon (Uebman, Mayer, & Uebeskind, 1970), caudoputamen (Kirkby & Kimble, 1969;Mitcham & Thomas, 1972;Prado-Alcala, Grinberg-Zylberbaum, Arditti, Garcia, Prieto, & Brust-Carmona, 1975;Winocur, 1974), and substantia nigra (Mitcham & Thomas, 1972).…”

We had described the importance of the entorhinal cortex in early neuropathological changes of Alzheimer's disease.…”
