SPATIAL WORKING MEMORY IN MALE RATS: PRE-EXPERIENCE AND TASK DEPENDENT ROLES OF DOPAMINE D1- AND D2-LIKE RECEPTORS

Spatial Working Memory in Male Rats: Pre-Experience and Task Dependent Roles of Dopamine D1- and D2-Like Receptors

The dopaminergic system is known to be involved in working memory processed by several brain regions like prefrontal cortex (PFC), hippocampus, striatum.In an earlier study we could show that Levodopa but not Modafinil enhanced working memory in a T-maze only during the early phase of training (day 3), whereas the later phase remained unaffected.Ra

SVD identifies transcript length distribution functions from DNA microarray data and reveals evolutionary forces globally affecting GBM metabolism.

To search for evolutionary forces that might act upon transcript length, we use the singular value decomposition (SVD) to identify the length distribution functions of sets and subsets of human and yeast transcripts from profiles of mRNA abundance levels across gel electrophoresis migration distances that were previously measured by DNA microarrays

THE QUALIFICATION OF READER IN SCHOOL AND NONSCHOOL SPACES

This article proceeds from the plan of study developed as part of the investigation Reading memories of post-graduation students: texts and contexts in the constitution of Electrical readers (SAMPAIO, 2007), supported by PIBIC/CNPq, in order to whom a database of the reading memories from post-graduation students was used as instrument of research.
