Dose-dependent suppression of hippocampal contextual memory formation, place cells, and spatial engrams by the NMDAR antagonist (R)-CPP

Mengwen Zhu, Mark G. Perkins, Richard C. Lennertz…·Robert A. Pearce

The paper investigates how the NMDAR antagonist (R)-CPP affects hippocampal contextual memory, place cells, and spatial engrams at concentrations that do not block fEPSPs or LTP.

Control of contextual memory through interneuronal α5-GABAA receptors

Mengwen Zhu, Alifayaz Abdulzahir, Mark G. Perkins…·Robert A. Pearce

This study shows that interneuronal α5-GABAARs promote spatial learning and mediate etomidate's suppression of hippocampus-dependent memory.
