Overall Evaluations
Carol Rego
The purpose of the study was very non specific, which allowed for further
exploration during the course of the study.

Experiment Evaluation
Experiment 1 • injection of AP5 caused learning deficit Experiment 2
• found contradicting results where the AP5 rats learned quite well despite complete LTP blockade
Experiment 3 • NMDA receptors are not necessary for all hippocampus dependant spatial learning
Experiment 4 • AP5 rats, given non-spatial pretraining, a learning deficit was observed
Overall Evaluations

Overall Evaluations
Carol Rego
NMDA receptors are not necessary for all hippocampus dependant spatial learning, but NMDA receptor dependant plasticity is dependent on the hippocampus for its
expression.

Common critique/concern
Effects of the drugs used to block NMDA receptors not well researched
Side effects may cause a decrease in performance◦ (i.e.) due to drowsiness, disorientation
Solution Gene knockout?
Pharmacological Side Effects

Stress Impairs Performance in Spatial Water Maze Learning Tasks (1999)◦ By Christian Holscher

Stressful situations◦ Stress can impair performance on specific
activities
How altered fear conditions and stress perception can account for the impaired spatial learning

Findings:
◦ Stress can cause amnesic symptoms in working memory
◦ Non-handled rats were slower in a spatial learning task

Further Studies
Sarah McNeil
Evidence Supporting Evidence Against
Same results found in gene knockout studies
In nature, large scale EPSP’s do not occur during information processing
Training in the brain uses same pathways as LTP and causes same synaptic efficiency
Drug and gene knockout can have other side effects that skew data
LTP can occur in other regions of the brain (i.e. amygdala)
Unethical to test LTP in humans and cannot extrapolate data across species
![Page 20: D.M. Bannerman, M.A. Good, S.P. Butcher, M. Ramsay & R.G.M. Morris GROUP A3 Bonnie Chan | Anastasia Christopher | Herman Gill Marisa Leung | Sarah McNeil.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051515/551acfb25503466b6a8b53b9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
There is lots of evidence to suggest that LTP might be similar to the neural mechanism
that the brain uses in learning and memory but the conclusion can not be made that the
mechanisms are the same.
Further Studies – Conclusion

Provided subsequent analyses of their hypothesis creating a concrete conclusion
However:Left several possible causal pathways unexplored
Failed to account for pharmacological side effects, age, and gender of subjects
Possible misinterpretation of results
Further studies have shown some validity in Bannerman et al results
Conclusion
