description |
The present study was aimed at determining the relative contribution of the dorsal (DH)
and ventral (VH) hippocampus in stress-induced memory retrieval impairments. Thus, we
studied the temporal involvement of corticosterone and its receptors, i.e.
mineralocorticoid (MR) and glucocorticoid (GR) in the DH and VH, in relation with the
time-course evolution of stress-induced memory retrieval impairments. In a first
experiment, double microdialysis allowed showing on the same animal that an acute stress
(electric footshocks) induced an earlier corticosterone rise in the DH
(15–60 min post-stress) and then in the VH (90–105 min
post-stress). The return to baseline was faster in the DH (105 min) than in the VH
(120 min). Memory deficits assessed by delayed alternation occurred at 15-, 60-,
and 105-min delays after stress and were closely related to the kinetic of corticosterone
rises within the DH and VH. In a second experiment, the GR antagonist RU-38486 and the MR
antagonist RU-28318 were administered in the DH or VH 15 min before stress.
RU-38486 restored memory at 60 but not at 105 min post-stress delays in the DH,
whereas the opposite pattern was observed in the VH. By contrast, RU-28318 had no effect
on memory impairments at both the 60- and 105-min post-stress delays, showing that MR
receptors are not involved at these delays. However, RU-28318 administered in the DH
restored memory when administered at a shorter post-stress delay (15 min). Overall,
our data are first to evidence that stress induces a functional switch from the DH to VH
via different corticosterone time-course evolutions in these areas and the sequential GR
receptors involvement in the DH and then in the VH, as regards the persistence of
stress-induced memory retrieval deficits over time. |
