Abstract The ability to remember conspecifics is critical for adaptive cognitive functioning and social communication, impairments of this are hallmarks autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Although hippocampal ventral CA1 (vCA1) neurons known store memories, how their activities coordinated remains unclear. Here we show that vCA1 memory neurons, characterized by enhanced activity in response memorized individuals, were preferentially reactivated during sharp-wave ripples (SPW-Rs). Spike...

Individual recognition (IR) is essential for maintaining various social interactions in a group, and face one of the most specialised cognitive abilities IR. We used both mating preference system an electric shock conditioning experiment to test IR ability medaka, found that signals near are important. Medaka required more time discriminate vertically inverted faces, but not horizontally shifted faces or non-face objects. The may be comparable classic 'face inversion effect' humans some...

Abstract Perception of fear induced by others in danger elicits complex vicarious responses and behavioral outputs. In rodents, observing a conspecific receive aversive stimuli leads to escape freezing behavior. It remains unclear how these self-states response are neurophysiologically represented. Here, we assess such representations the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC), an essential site for empathy, observational (OF) paradigm male mice. We classify observer mouse’s stereotypic...

Abstract Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have a higher prevalence of social memory impairment. A series our previous studies revealed that hippocampal ventral CA1 (vCA1) neurons possess engram and the neurophysiological representation in vCA1 is disrupted ASD-associated Shank3 knockout mice. However, whether dysfunction causes impairment observed ASD remains unclear. In this study, we found vCA1-specific conditional (cKO) by adeno-associated virus (AAV)- or specialized...

A speed-accuracy trade-off (SAT) in behavioural decisions is known to occur a wide range of vertebrate and invertebrate taxa. Accurate often take longer for given condition, while fast can be inaccurate some tasks. Speed-accuracy tactics are vary consistently among individuals, show degree flexibility during colour discrimination tasks bees. Such individual likely advantageous animals exposed fluctuating environments, such as changes predation threat. We therefore test whether fixed or...

Animals are always integrating environmental information from multiple sensory modalities, but the mechanisms underneath highly underexploited. Crossmodal interactions in animal perception have been found several species including human, mice and flies. Here we subjected zebrafish as model because its genetic effects on brain sense organ development well studied, attentional processes mainly unexplored. Zebrafish show impressive behaviour capabilities with relatively small or “simple” brains...

To investigate the tendency of same-different conceptualization in non-human animals, Wasserman and his colleagues devised have used multiple-item array task.In this task, subjects are displayed two choice-keys an multiple (typically 16) icons either a uniform manner (1 pattern) or all to be different (16 patterns).Subjects required select correct choice-key depending on array.Wasserman & Young (2010) argued that pigeons baboons same/different concept but is controlled by entropy.In study,...
