DDAVP has been shown to facilitate memory, especially retrieval, in humans. Healthy young male adult subjects received DDAVP (60 micrograms) in a cross-over design with a one-week interval between sessions. Results indicated that DDAVP improved immediate memory during the first but not the second testing session, particularly for low-verbal subjects. Treatment with DDAVP also facilitated delayed (one-week) recall in the opposite group, a cross-over interaction that suggests a retrieval locus for the DDAVP effect. Furthermore, since DDAVP improved immediate memory more for low-verbal subjects and delayed memory more for high-verbal subjects, it appears that individual difference factors will be important in understanding the effects of vasopressin on memory. 相似文献

The effects of desmopressin acetate (DDAVP) were studied in normal males. Subjects were given 60μg of DDAVP, a placebo, or no treatment and were given several behavioral tests. DDAVP enhanced learning of all problems on a concept shift task but had no effect on visual memory, anxiety, blood pressure or heart rate. It was suggested that DDAVP may influence memory via its actions on attention. 相似文献

The effects of desmopressin acetate (DDAVP), a vasopressin analogue, were investigated using the Sternberg Item Recognition Task. This task requires a subject to memorize a target set of up to four digits and then quickly to decide whether or not a given probe was in the original memory set. Fifteen college aged males were used as subjects in this study. Subjects received, in a double blind procedure, 0.6 ml of DDAVP (60 micrograms) or an equal volume of vehicle solution during the first test session. One week later, during the second test session, the hormone-placebo treatments were reversed. The results indicated significant main effects for set size and decision type and an interaction between treatment and session. Treatment with DDAVP during the second but not the first session improved performance at each set size as compared to treatment with the vehicle. These results indicate that DDAVP, combined with experience on this task, improved attentional processes but did not influence memory, which would have been indicated by an interaction between treatment and size of memory set. 相似文献

Although several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of the vasopressin analog DDAVP in enhancing human memory, no previous study has reported the dose-response relationship of DDAVP to memory in healthy young adults. The present study was undertaken to explore the dose-response curve for DDAVP on recall of implicational sentences. Five doses of DDAVP (0, 5, 15, 30, and 60 micrograms) were administered intranasally to healthy young adult male volunteers. Results demonstrated a facilitation in cued recall after treatment with the 60-micrograms dose and a general impairment in recall after treatment with the 15-micrograms dose. These effects were independent of subject's weight, vocabulary ability, and concentration of salivary cortisol. 相似文献

The fibrinolytic capacity was assessed in 18 healthy subjects and in 8 patients each with non-idiopathic venous thrombosis, idiopathic venous thrombosis and myocardial infarction after intravenous administration of 1-deamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP) (0.4 microgram/kg) in comparison to venous occlusion. In healthy subjects the results obtained by either stimulus were approximately in agreement. Compared to the control group, in patients with non-idiopathic venous thrombosis the fibrinolytic capacity was not changed either after venous occlusion or after administration of DDAVP. In 5 out of 8 patients with idiopathic venous thrombosis the capacity was significantly reduced both after venous occlusion and after administration of DDAVP. In 4 out of 8 patients with myocardial infarction the capacity was significantly below the limit after administration of DDAVP while it was not after venous occlusion. In determining the fibrinolytic capacity DDAVP proved to be superior to venous occlusion. 相似文献

Sixty male albino rats received DDAVP, a placebo, or control treatment and were tested on a brightness discrimination task. Three groups (DDAVP, placebo, and control) were tested in the morning and three groups were tested in the evening. The acquisition and reversal of the brightness discrimination, along with the retention of the reversal problem after a 5-day retention interval were analyzed. Inspection of forward and backward learning curves plotted for each task revealed facilitated acquisition along with an initial impairment of reversal learning in those animals treated with DDAVP. These results support a memorial interpretation of DDAVP's effects. This was short-term in duration, as no retention effects were obtained. It was also found that DDAVP's effects were not influenced by diurnal processes. 相似文献

Maximum urine osmolality was measured during a 24-hour control period in normal ambulant and working subjects and hospital inpatients and compared with that achieved after intramuscular injection of 4 microgram desamino-cys-1-8-D-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP). Most of the normal subjects passed maximally concentrated urine at some time during the control period. The results suggest that in less active subjects or hospital inpatients the DDAVP test is a suitable method of assessing renal concentrating ability. 相似文献

This study investigated the effects of an acute dose of DDAVP on speed and consistency of planning and execution of simple and complex movements in healthy young adults. A simple reaction time task (SRT), a simple movement task (SMT), and a complex movement task (CMT) were performed with and without a 0.6 ml intranasal dose (60 micrograms) of DDAVP. Results indicated DDAVP-treated individuals planned and executed CMT and SRT tasks faster and more consistently than did placebo-treated subjects. There were nonsignificant DDAVP effects on speed and variability of both RT and MT processes involved in the SMT. 相似文献

Groups of newborn Wistar rats received daily 1-desamino-8-D-arginine-vasopressin (DDAVP), oxytocin (OXT), hypertonic saline or normal saline for 14 days from day 1 to day 14 of life. One or three months later they were trained in a maze for brightness discrimination (BD). A group of untreated adult male rats received posttrial DDAVP or normal saline for brightness discrimination. Subsequently all the retentions of BD were tested after one month. We found that the neonatal treatments with both DDAVP and hypertonic saline facilitated acquisition and subsequent maintenance of brightness discrimination in immature and mature rats, and also that posttreatment with DDAVP enhanced retention of BD in adult rats. Oxytocin and normal saline had no effect on these parameters. The results are interpreted as showing that endogenous AVP and its synthetic analog enhance the development and adult function of central neural substrates involved in learning behaviors. 相似文献

In an attempt to clarify the mechanism responsible for the prolonged effect of DDAVP (1-desamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin), plasma levels of DDAVP and nephrogenous cyclic AMP were determined in patients with diabetes insipidus after a single intranasal administration of 10 micrograms of DDAVP. Plasma DDAVP levels were uniformly elevated within 30 min, and showed a peak ranging from 5.6 to 25.0 pg/ml between 30 and 120 min. The subsequent time-course of plasma DDAVP differed however, from patient to patient, and was irregular in most of them. In all of the patients whose plasma DDAVP dropped below 1.0 pg/ml, antidiuresis was still observed. Although the mean basal level of nephrogenous cyclic AMP in patients with diabetes insipidus was not significantly different from that in control subjects, the administration of DDAVP resulted in a 2-fold increase. A negative correlation between nephrogenous cyclic AMP and free water clearance was obtained. These results suggest that the long-acting nature of DDAVP may be attributed, in addition to its gradual absorption from nasal mucosa and slow metabolic clearance, to a higher or persistent biological activity at the receptor site in the kidney and that a nearly physiological level of antidiuretic hormone may cause de novo synthesis of cyclic AMP in the kidney and exert its biological action. 相似文献

Delusions are the persistent and often bizarre beliefs that characterise psychosis. Previous studies have suggested that their emergence may be explained by disturbances in prediction error-dependent learning. Here we set up complementary studies in order to examine whether such a disturbance also modulates memory reconsolidation and hence explains their remarkable persistence. First, we quantified individual brain responses to prediction error in a causal learning task in 18 human subjects (8 female). Next, a placebo-controlled within-subjects study of the impact of ketamine was set up on the same individuals. We determined the influence of this NMDA receptor antagonist (previously shown to induce aberrant prediction error signal and lead to transient alterations in perception and belief) on the evolution of a fear memory over a 72 hour period: they initially underwent Pavlovian fear conditioning; 24 hours later, during ketamine or placebo administration, the conditioned stimulus (CS) was presented once, without reinforcement; memory strength was then tested again 24 hours later. Re-presentation of the CS under ketamine led to a stronger subsequent memory than under placebo. Moreover, the degree of strengthening correlated with individual vulnerability to ketamine''s psychotogenic effects and with prediction error brain signal. This finding was partially replicated in an independent sample with an appetitive learning procedure (in 8 human subjects, 4 female). These results suggest a link between altered prediction error, memory strength and psychosis. They point to a core disruption that may explain not only the emergence of delusional beliefs but also their persistence. 相似文献

Consolidation, a process that stabilizes memory trace after initial acquisition, has been studied for over a century. A number of studies have shown that a skill or memory must be consolidated after acquisition so that it becomes resistant to interference from new information. Previous research found that training on a peripheral 3-dot hyperacuity task could retrogradely interfere with earlier training on the same task but with a mirrored stimulus configuration. However, a recent study failed to replicate this finding. Here we address the controversy by replicating both patterns of results, however, under different experimental settings. We find that retrograde interference occurs when eye-movements are tightly controlled, using a gaze-contingent display, where the peripheral stimuli were only presented when subjects maintained fixation. On the other hand, no retrograde interference was found in a group of subjects who performed the task without this fixation control. Our results provide a plausible explanation of why divergent results were found for retrograde interference in perceptual learning on the 3-dot hyperacuity task and confirm that retrograde interference can occur in this type of low-level perceptual learning. Furthermore, our results demonstrate the importance of eye-movement controls in studies of perceptual learning in the peripheral visual field. 相似文献

Background
The left midfusiform and adjacent regions have been implicated in processing and memorizing familiar words, yet its role in memorizing novel characters has not been well understood.Methodology/Principal Findings
Using functional MRI, the present study examined the hypothesis that the left midfusiform is also involved in memorizing novel characters and spaced learning could enhance the memory by enhancing the left midfusiform activity during learning. Nineteen native Chinese readers were scanned while memorizing the visual form of 120 Korean characters that were novel to the subjects. Each character was repeated four times during learning. Repetition suppression was manipulated by using two different repetition schedules: massed learning and spaced learning, pseudo-randomly mixed within the same scanning session. Under the massed learning condition, the four repetitions were consecutive (with a jittered inter-repetition interval to improve the design efficiency). Under the spaced learning condition, the four repetitions were interleaved with a minimal inter-repetition lag of 6 stimuli. Spaced learning significantly improved participants'' performance during the recognition memory test administered one hour after the scan. Stronger left midfusiform and inferior temporal gyrus activities during learning (summed across four repetitions) were associated with better memory of the characters, based on both within- and cross-subjects analyses. Compared to massed learning, spaced learning significantly reduced neural repetition suppression and increased the overall activities in these regions, which were associated with better memory for novel characters.Conclusions/Significance
These results demonstrated a strong link between cortical activity in the left midfusiform and memory for novel characters, and thus challenge the visual word form area (VWFA) hypothesis. Our results also shed light on the neural mechanisms of the spacing effect in memorizing novel characters. 相似文献14.

Plasma membrane fluidity of platelets (PLT) obtained from subjects with primary nocturnal enuresis (PNE) and healthy controls was investigated before and after addition of desmopressin (DDAVP). Membrane fluidity was studied by measuring steadystate fluorescence anisotropy of 1-(4-trimethylammoniumphenyl)-6-phenyl-1, 3, 5-hexatriene incorporated into PLT plasma membrane. Our results show an increase in membrane fluidity at the surface level of PLT from subjects with PNE. Moreover, the addition of DDAVP induces a stable and significant decrease of membrane fluidity in both groups. These results suggest alterations of the lipid order in the exterior part of the PLT plasma membrane from patients with PNE. 相似文献

Incidental and intentional learning and memory for 2 novel flavors were compared in young and elderly subjects. Incidental and intentional learning groups rated 2 new soups on acceptability for different occasions and were tested for memory the next day. On the first day, only the intentional group was asked to memorize the stimuli. With incidental learning, elderly and young were equally good, but the young performed better with intentional than with incidental learning, whereas the elderly did not. There were no age-related differences in perceptual discrimination. When comparing perceived flavor with the memory of it, the elderly tend to overrate intensities of remembered flavor attributes, whereas the young tend to underrate them. Memory was not related to flavor pleasantness or neophobia. Like memory for taste and texture, flavor memory seems to be mainly tuned at detecting changes and based on "feelings of not knowing" rather than on precise identification and recognition of previously encountered stimuli. 相似文献

Variation in learning and memory abilities among closely related species, or even among populations of the same species, has opened research into the relationship between cognition, ecological context and the fitness costs, and benefits of learning and memory. Such research programmes have long been dominated by vertebrate studies and by the assumption of a relationship between cognitive abilities, brain size and metabolic costs. Research on these 'large brained' organisms has provided important insights into the understanding of cognitive functions and their adaptive value. In the present review, we discuss some aspects of the fitness costs of learning and memory by focusing on 'mini-brain' studies. Research on learning and memory in insects has challenged some traditional positions and is pushing the boundaries of our understanding of the evolution of learning and memory. 相似文献

Progressive dementia patients demonstrate profound and obvious learning-memory impairments. To a large extent, these are determined by failures to access and use previously learned knowledge (semantic memory) to affect encoding and processing of ongoing events (episodic memory). There are other forms of memory failures in man that are likely to be determined by quite different psychobiological mechanisms, such as failures to retain or consolidate information in memory. One important way in which drug treatments may facilitate the learning-memory impairment in mildly demented patients is by making semantic memory structures more accessible. Patients treated with 1-desoamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP), a synthetic analog of the hypothalmic peptide arginine vasopressin, demonstrate cognitive enhancement by facilitating access to semantic memory structures that are part of long-term memory. 相似文献

In seven patients with cranial diabetes insipidus an analogue of vasopressin, DDAVP, produced an antidiuresis lasting up to 20 hours after a single intranasal dose. Lysine vasopressin (LVP) in the same dose produced a less potent antidiuresis which lasted for only three to four hours. The plasma half life of DDAVP was 7·8 and 75·5 min for the fast and slow phases, compared with 2·5 and 14·5 min for LVP. Radioiodine-labelled DDAVP was not destroyed by incubation with late pregnancy plasma, which contains an enzyme that inactivates vasopressin. The slow metabolic clearance of DDAVP, its absorption through the nasal mucosa, and its lack of side effects make this the ideal drug for the treatment of vasopressin-sensitive diabetes insipidus. Patients usually require 10 to 20 μg DDAVP given intranasally twice daily for good clinical control of their diabetes insipidus. 相似文献

One mechanism proposed for reducing the risk of calcium renal stones is activation of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) on the apical membranes of collecting duct principal cells by high luminal calcium. This would reduce the abundance of aquaporin-2 (AQP2) and in turn the rate of water reabsorption. While evidence in cells and in hypercalciuric animal models supports this hypothesis, the relevance of the interplay between the CaR and AQP2 in humans is not clear. This paper reports for the first time a detailed correlation between urinary AQP2 excretion under acute vasopressin action (DDAVP treatment) in hypercalciuric subjects and in parallel analyzes AQP2-CaR crosstalk in a mouse collecting duct cell line (MCD4) expressing endogenous and functional CaR. In normocalciurics, DDAVP administration resulted in a significant increase in AQP2 excretion paralleled by an increase in urinary osmolality indicating a physiological response to DDAVP. In contrast, in hypercalciurics, baseline AQP2 excretion was high and did not significantly increase after DDAVP. Moreover DDAVP treatment was accompanied by a less pronounced increase in urinary osmolality. These data indicate reduced urinary concentrating ability in response to vasopressin in hypercalciurics. Consistent with these results, biotinylation experiments in MCD4 cells revealed that membrane AQP2 expression in unstimulated cells exposed to CaR agonists was higher than in control cells and did not increase significantly in response to short term exposure to forskolin (FK). Interestingly, we found that CaR activation by specific agonists reduced the increase in cAMP and prevented any reduction in Rho activity in response to FK, two crucial pathways for AQP2 translocation. These data support the hypothesis that CaR-AQP2 interplay represents an internal renal defense to mitigate the effects of hypercalciuria on the risk of calcium precipitation during antidiuresis. This mechanism and possibly reduced medulla tonicity may explain the lower concentrating ability observed in hypercalciuric patients. 相似文献
