Four experiments with 202 rats investigated spontaneous configuring, using the conditioned flavor-aversion paradigm. In Exp I, extended training of a 2-flavor compound stimulus did not produce spontaneous differentiation of conditioned responding to that compound and its elements. In Exp II, it was found that extended nonreinforced exposure to a compound stimulus generated spontaneous element–compound differentiation when the elements were later conditioned. Ss that received extended preexposure to the compound showed less conditioned responding to the compound than to either of its elements. However, Ss that had not received preexposure to the compound showed greater conditioned responding to the compound than to either of its elements (summation). In Exp III, nonreinforced preexposure to a compound stimulus prior to minimal reinforced compound training produced spontaneous compound–element differentiation, but extended reinforced compound training eliminated that differentiation. In Exp IV, extended partial reinforcement training with a compound produced differentiation of the compound from its elements. Implications of these data for the mechanisms responsible for spontaneous configuring, and for the summation assumptions common to most learning theories, are discussed.

Three experiments examined the conditioned taste aversion (CTA) deficit that occurs following electrolytic lesions of the parabrachial nucleus (PBN). In Exp 1, lesioned rats failed to avoid either a gustatory or an olfactory stimulus that had been paired with lithium chloride-induced toxicosis. In Exp 2, however, all rats learned a conditioned flavor preference. Finally, in Exp 3, all controls and 7 of the 12 lesioned rats learned a conditioned place aversion. Together, these results demonstrate that the disruption of CTA in lesioned rats cannot be ascribed to an inability to process either gustatory or visceral afferent information per se. Rather, the data suggest that PBN-lesioned rats are unable to form a specific association between gustatory and visceral cues. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) 相似文献

We discovered that a food aversion could be conditioned in anesthetized sheep. Sheep were allowed to eat a familiar food (alfalfa-grain pellets) for 30 min, and 90 min later they were given either an intraruminal (IR) injection of water (C), an IR injection of LiCl (L), anesthesia followed by an IR injection of water (A), or anesthesia followed by an IR injection of LiCl (A+L). Induction of anesthesia was by an intravenous injection of pentobarbitone sodium, and maintenance of deep anesthesia was by halothane. Sheep were maintained in deep anesthesia for 2 h to ensure that the effects of LiCl on the acquisition of a food aversion, which occur within about 1 h, were completed before they awakened. When tested 5 days later, sheep that received LiCl (treatments L and A+L) consumed less alfalfa-grain pellets than sheep that did not receive LiCl (treatments C and A) (241 g vs. 306 g; p = 0.057). Intake of sheep that were anesthetized (treatments A and A+L) did not differ from that of sheep that were not anesthetized (treatments C and L) (295 g vs. 252 g; p = 0.183). Nor was there an interaction between LiCl and anesthesia (p = 0.423). Thus, we conclude that changes in preferences for foods caused by postingestive feedback occur automatically every time food is ingested (i.e., they are noncognitive), and the kind and amount of feedback is a function of the match between the food's chemical characteristics and its ability to meet the animal's current demands for nutrients. 相似文献

Genetic differences in nicotine-induced conditioned taste aversion were examined using inbred mice. Adult male C57BL/6J, DBA/2J, BALB/cJ and C3H/heJ mice were adapted to a 2-h per day water access regimen. Subsequently, mice received nicotine injections (0.5, 1.0 or 2.0 mg/kg) immediately after 1-h access to a NaCl flavored solution. DBA and C3H mice developed dose-dependent aversions to the nicotine-paired flavor. BALB mice showed only minor reductions in intake with no difference between the nicotine dose groups. C57BL mice did not show development of nicotine-induced conditioned taste aversion. These results demonstrate that nicotine's aversion motivational effect is strongly influenced by genotype. Further, genetic sensitivity (DBA mice) or insensitivity (C57BL mice) to nicotine-induced conditioned taste aversion was similar to reports of genetic sensitivity to ethanol's aversive effect measured in this design. 相似文献

In 4 experiments, rats were trained to associate 1 of 2 differently flavored solutions with caffeine. During later 2-bottle extinction tests, they consistently preferred flavors that had been previously mixed with 2 lower (0.25 and 0.125 mg/ml), but not 2 higher (0.5 and 0.75 mg/ml), caffeine concentrations. Hunger during conditioning increased the size of these preferences, but neither preexposure to unflavored caffeine nor hunger during the choice test had any effect on them. Because caffeine is noncaloric, this last finding strengthens the hypothesis that hunger enhances the expression of only calorie-based conditioned flavor preferences. More fundamentally, the present results represent the first clear evidence that, through Pavlovian conditioning, rats can develop preferences for flavors associated with caffeine.

Rats with extensive ibotenic acid lesions centered in the gustatory zone of the pontine parabrachial nucleus (PBN) failed to acquire a conditioned taste aversion (CTA) induced by lithium chloride (LiCl) toxicosis (Experiments 1 and 4). This deficit cannot be explained as an inability to either perceive or process gustatory information because lesioned rats that failed to acquire a CTA readily acquired a conditioned flavor preference (Experiment 2). Similarly, the CTA deficit cannot be attributed to an inability to experience or process visceral input because PBN-lesioned rats that failed to acquire a CTA successfully learned an aversion to a trigeminal stimulus, capsaicin, when paired with LiCl-induced illness (Experiment 3). This pattern of results supports the view that cell bodies within the PBN are essential for the associative processes that govern CTA learning.

The hedonic properties of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) were assessed using the place conditioning, taste reactivity, and taste avoidance tests. LSD produced a conditioned place preference, but only at the highest dose tested (0.2 mg/kg). A single preexposure to the conditioning chamber (latent inhibition) prevented the establishment of a place preference. When paired with sucrose, doses of 0.05 to 0.2 mg/kg of LSD produced taste avoidance, but no dose of LSD produced an aversion to the taste as assessed by the taste reactivity test. These results suggest that LSD, like other rewarding drugs, produces taste avoidance by a mechanism other than that produced by emetic drugs.

This study used a genetic correlational strategy to characterize the neurobiological basis of ethanol's (0, 2, or 4 g/kg) aversive effects as indexed by conditioned taste aversion. Substantial strain differences in taste aversion and hypothermia were observed, but the genetic correlation between these phenotypes was not significant. However, significant genetic correlations were observed between taste aversion and ethanol-related behaviors measured in previous studies, including home-cage ethanol preference (r = .68) and ethanol withdrawal severity (r = -.69). Strains showing stronger taste aversion tended to show lower ethanol preference and higher withdrawal severity. This pattern of findings is consistent with previous studies suggesting a commonality in neurobiological mechanisms underlying these phenotypes. These results do not support the hypothesis that ethanol-induced taste aversion is mediated by the drug's rewarding properties. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) 相似文献

Rats received 30 stimulations and 30 sham stimulations (the lead was attached to the subjects but no current was delivered) to the left basolateral amygdala in a quasirandom sequence. Stimulations were preceded by the presentation of 1 flavored solution conditional stimulus (CS+); sham stimulations were preceded by the presentation of another flavored solution, CS-. As kindled motor seizures developed, the rats began to consume significantly less of the CS+ than the CS- Moreover, at the end of the experiment, the rats consumed significantly less of the CS+ than the CS- during a 20-min conditioned flavor preference test in which both solutions were available simultaneously. These findings confirm and extend the recent report that interictal changes in defensive behavior can be conditioned by amygdalar kindling.

The extent to which human discrimination learning is based on elemental or configural stimulus representations was examined in 7 experiments. In Experiments 1a and 1b, participants were able to learn nonlinear discrimination problems in a food-allergy task. In unique-cue theories, such learning is explained by individual stimulus elements acquiring independent connections with the outcome and also combining to form unique cues that function elementally. In Stage 1 of Experiments 2, 3, and 4a–c, Food A signaled an allergy outcome (O) (A?→?O) when presented alone but signaled no allergy (AB?→?no O) when paired with Food B. In Stage 2, Food B was paired with the allergy (B?→?0). In a test phase, the original discrimination between A and AB was found to be intact, at variance with the unique-cue theory. By contrast, in Experiments 5a, 5b, and 6, an effect of the B?→?O trials on the A–AB discrimination was observed with training procedures previously found by D. A. Williams (1995) to encourage elemental processing. Experiment 7 showed that the influence of B?→?0 trials on the A–AB discrimination was unaffected by pretreatments designed to foster an elemental processing strategy.… (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) 相似文献

In 2 experiments, the development of adjuvant arthritis (an experimental autoimmune disease) was inhibited by exposing rats to a flavored solution that had previously been paired with injections of cyclosporine (an immunodepressive drug) compared with rats with the same history but exposed to a flavored solution that had previously not been paired with drug injections. In contrast to earlier experiments on conditioned cyclophosphamide effects, rats did not avoid the taste that had previously been paired with drug administration. Thus, conditioned immunopharmacologic effects were not confounded with taste aversion. These observations are interpreted as reflecting an associative learning process that affected the development of an autoimmmune disease.

Previous studies show that acetaldehyde poisoning from ethanol ingestion may lead to aversion to ethanol among DBA mice but not among C57 mice, since the former are relatively deficient in aldehyde dehydrogenase activity. The present study paired ingestion of saccharin with a single intraperitoneal injection of 1 of 4 concentrations of ethanol for 60 DBA/2J and 60 C57BL/6J mice. Ss were then given a 2-bottle saccharin vs water preference test for 10 days. Substitution of saccharin for the taste of ethanol resulted in avoidance of saccharin with all concentrations of ethanol by DBAs but not by C57s, consistent with the conditioned taste aversion paradigm as a model for genetically mediated ethanol avoidance.

Rats were exposed to the compound flavors AX and BX, presented in alternation, and to CX on a separate block of trials. Generalization to BX after aversion conditioning with AX was less than to CX. An equivalent effect was found when the nature of the common element was changed after preexposure but not when the common element was omitted during preexposure, during conditioning and test, or both. Rats conditioned with X alone again showed less aversion to BX than to CX; similarly, rats conditioned with a novel flavor (Y) showed less aversion to BY than to CY. These effects support the proposal that intermixed preexposure to AX and BX enhances the perceptual effectiveness of their unique features, A and B.

This study examined the role of the entorhinal cortex (EC) in conditioned odor aversion learning (COA). Lateral EC lesions did not impair but rather facilitated COA. In the experiments the delay separating the odor cue presentation from the subsequent toxicosis was varied during acquisition. EC-lesioned rats demonstrated COA for delays up to 2 hr, whereas sham-operated rats displayed COA only if toxicosis immediately followed the odor cue. This facilitation was not dependent on the intensity of the odor and corresponded to a facilitated long-delay learning. EC lesion did not affect conditioned taste aversion, confirming that the facilitation effect does not correspond to a general facilitation of conditioned aversion learning. Taken together, these results indicate that the removal of the EC may allow odor-toxicosis associations across longer delays by extending the duration of the olfactory trace.

Analyzed the mechanism of conditioned taste aversion (CTA) by subjecting 131 male and hooded rats in 5 experiments to reduced body temperature during various phases of CTA acquisition. A 15-min access to .1% saccharin served as the CS, and an ip injection of LiCl (.15 M, 4% of body weight) given 30 min later served as the UCS. Hypothermia (cooling to 20-22°C colonic temperature) alone or combined with anesthesia (Nembutal 20 or 40 mg/kg) did not prevent CTA acquisition when applied during the CS-UCS interval. Hypothermia induced immediately after LiCl administration to anesthetized or unanesthetized Ss failed to disrupt CTA or to increase neophobic rejection of saccharin. On the other hand, hypothermic Ss were not able to form the short-term gustatory trace when the CS (2% saccharin, 1% of body weight) was injected ip, although this procedure yielded significant CTA in euthermic Ss. It is concluded that the most vulnerable link of CTA acquisition is the formation of the short-term gustatory trace. Persistence of the short-term trace, its association with poisoning, and consolidation of the permanent CTA engram are accomplished by mechanisms that are resistant to hypothermia and/or anesthesia.

Secretion of trypsin, chymotrypsin, lipase and amylase was measured in male rats under urethane anaesthesia using a method of continuous perfusion of the duodenum. Prolonged infusion of cholecystokinin-pancreozymin (CCK-PZ) over a period lasting 200-360 min was administered either alone or together with a submaximal dose of secretin (1 unit/100 g - 10 min). Infusion of CCK-PZ was carried out using maximal doses (1--1.5 unit/100 g - 10 min) with and without secretin. Supramaximal doses of CCK-PZ (2 and 4 units/100 g - 10 min) were used only in combination with secretin. In all experiments secretion of enzymes showed a triphasic pattern including an initial peak followed by a plateau secretion after 10--20 min (phase 1), a decreasing second phase and finally base-line secretion (phase 3), thus demonstrating exhaustion of enzyme output from the gland with time. With increasing and supramaximal dose of CCK-PZ the cumulative output of enzymes from start to baseline secretion decreased progressively. Under the same conditions the levels of peak and plateau secretion were lower, the duration of plateau secretion was longer and the decreasing phase of secretion was shortened. These features indicate inhibition of secretion with increasing supramaximal doses of CCK-PZ infusion. Whereas the proteolytic enzymes and lipase reacted in a parallel way always amylase secretion was sustained on a higher level, implicating an alternative pathway for secretion. 相似文献

The role of the perirhinal cortex (PC) in conditioned taste aversion (CTA) learning was investigated in Long-Evans rats. CTA was induced by the intraperitoneal administration of LiCl 60 min after saccharin-sweetened water drinking. The PC was reversibly inactivated by the stereotaxic administration of tetrodotoxin (TTX) 60 min before saccharin drinking, immediately after saccharin drinking (Experiment 1), 6 or 24 hr after LiCl administration (Experiment 2), and 60 min before CTA retrieval testing (Experiment 3). Only pre-saccharin drinking PC inactivation disrupted CTA. Thus, PC integrity is necessary only during the earliest phases of CTA mnemonic processing, that is, taste information acquisition and early gustatory memory elaboration. The results are discussed in relation to PC connectivity and PC temporal involvement in the memorization process of other aversive responses.

A new generation of synthetic carbon adsorbents was used in production of deliganded human serum albumin preparation. Thermal effects of officinal and deliganded albumin interaction with specific chemical markers were analyzed by flow microcalorimetry. The results demonstrated a 2.5-fold increase of the complexing ability for the deliganded one. The detoxifying potentials of deliganded albumin were studied in comparison with officinal preparation in rats with burn toxemia after IIIB-IV degree thermal injury and in model experiments with blood serum of patients after severe thermal burn. The transfusion of a 5% officinal albumin solution in rats 1 h after burn trauma resulted in a decrease of serum and liver cytosols cytotoxicity 2.2 and 2.4 times, respectively, in comparison with those of burned rats. After deliganded albumin transfusion the cytotoxic activity of blood serum dropped 8.5 times and that of the liver cytosols 18.5 times. The incubation of blood serum of injured patients with equal amounts of a 5% solutions of officinal or deliganded albumin resulted in a fall of the cytotoxicity level and the growth of binding ability. A comparative analysis of detoxifying potentials of albumin preparations has unambiguously demonstrated deliganded albumin advantages. 相似文献

Four experiments employed a taste aversion conditioning procedure appropriate for both neonatal and adult rats to investigate the ontogeny of extended retention. In Exp I, 200 outbred albino rats trained at 1, 10, 20, or 60 days of age were tested for retention of the taste aversion 25 days later. At testing, only those Ss conditioned when 20 or 60 days old demonstrated significant taste aversions. Exps II and III, with 190 Ss, established that Ss 14–25 days old and older were able to retain significant taste aversions following a 25-day retention interval. 80 younger Ss did, however, acquire and retain the aversion for several days and showed a gradual retention loss over progressively longer retention intervals (Exp IV). Findings suggest that preweanling rats demonstrate initial consolidation, storage, and retrieval of conditioned taste aversions. It is only after this initial period that retention deficits become evident. (29 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) 相似文献
