The role of hippocampal subregions in detecting spatial novelty.

I Lee, MR Hunsaker, RP Kesner - Behavioral neuroscience, 2005 - psycnet.apa.org
Previous literature suggests that the hippocampus subserves processes associated with the
encoding of novel information. To investigate the role of different subregions of the …

The operation of pattern separation and pattern completion processes associated with different attributes or domains of memory

MR Hunsaker, RP Kesner - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2013 - Elsevier
Pattern separation and pattern completion processes are central to how the brain processes
information in an efficient manner. Research into these processes is escalating and …

The role of the dentate gyrus, CA3a, b, and CA3c for detecting spatial and environmental novelty

MR Hunsaker, JS Rosenberg, RP Kesner - Hippocampus, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
It has been suggested that the dentate gyrus (DG) and CA3 cooperate to efficiently process
spatial information. The DG has been proposed to be important for fine spatial discrimination, …

The interactions and dissociations of the dorsal hippocampus subregions: how the dentate gyrus, CA3, and CA1 process spatial information.

NJ Goodrich-Hunsaker, MR Hunsaker… - Behavioral …, 2008 - psycnet.apa.org
Several studies have demonstrated the significance of a spatial cognitive map and its role
for guided and accurate navigation through the environment. Learning and recalling spatial …

Dissociations across the dorsal–ventral axis of CA3 and CA1 for encoding and retrieval of contextual and auditory-cued fear

MR Hunsaker, RP Kesner - Neurobiology of learning and memory, 2008 - Elsevier
The present study was designed to dissociate the roles of dorsal CA3, dorsal CA1, ventral
CA3, and ventral CA1 in contextual and auditory-cued classical fear conditioning. Rats …

Evaluating the differential roles of the dorsal dentate gyrus, dorsal CA3, and dorsal CA1 during a temporal ordering for spatial locations task

MR Hunsaker, RP Kesner - Hippocampus, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
It has been demonstrated that the dorsal CA1 subregion of the hippocampus mediates temporal
processing of information, that dorsal CA3 participates in the spatiotemporal processing …

Dissociations of the medial and lateral perforant path projections into dorsal DG, CA3, and CA1 for spatial and nonspatial (visual object) information processing.

MR Hunsaker, GG Mooy, JS Swift… - Behavioral …, 2007 - psycnet.apa.org
Medial perforant path plasticity can be attenuated by 2-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid (APV)
infusions, whereas lateral perforant path plasticity can be attenuated by naloxone infusions…

Neuropathological, clinical and molecular pathology in female fragile X premutation carriers with and without FXTAS

F Tassone, CM Greco, MR Hunsaker… - Genes, Brain and …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Fragile X‐associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is an adult‐onset neurodegenerative
disorder associated with premutation alleles of the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) …

The role of CA1 in the acquisition of an object-trace-odor paired associate task.

RP Kesner, MR Hunsaker, PE Gilbert - Behavioral neuroscience, 2005 - psycnet.apa.org
This experiment was designed to determine whether adding a temporal component to an
object-odor association task would recruit the hippocampus. The rats were given CA1, CA3, or …

Dissociating the roles of dorsal and ventral CA1 for the temporal processing of spatial locations, visual objects, and odors.

MR Hunsaker, PM Fieldsted, JS Rosenberg… - Behavioral …, 2008 - psycnet.apa.org
The differential contributions of the dorsal and ventral hippocampus for learning and
memory have long been of interest. The present experiments were designed to evaluate the …
