Mechanisms of anesthesia resistant memory

Abstract

The ever-growing number of people with cognitive disorders highlights the need to research the physiological processes of cognitive functions such as learning and memory. Even simpler organisms than humans and mammals have the ability to make associations in order to avoid danger and be able to find anything of value, such as food. Among these, Drosophila melanogaster is the only model-organism associated with a memory type called Anesthesia Resistant Memory (ARM). Even though ARM is only defined in Drosophila it seems unlikely that there are no traces of it in other organisms. Investigation of the mechanisms that govern ARM will aid unmasking these traces of ARM in other organisms. The term ARM includes memory derived by either of two training protocols in accordance with the aversive classical olfactory conditioning assay. One protocol involves exposure of flies in low temperature after training, while the other protocol relies on extensive training without any temperature shifts. Ho ...
