摘要
The striatal beat frequency model assumes that striatal medium spiny neurons encode duration via synaptic plasticity. Muscarinic 1 (M1) cholinergic receptors as well as dopamine and glutamate receptors are important for neural plasticity in the dorsal striatum. Therefore, we investigated the effect of inhibiting these receptors on the formation of duration memory. After sufficient training in a peak interval (PI)-20-s procedure, rats were administered a single or mixed infusion of a selective antagonist for the dopamine D1 receptor (SCH23390, 0.5 µg per side), N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA)-type glutamate receptor (D-AP5, 3 µg), or M1 receptor (pirenzepine, 10 µg) bilaterally in the dorsal striatum, immediately before initiating a PI-40 s session (shift session). The next day, the rats were tested for new duration memory (40 s) in a session in which no lever presses were reinforced (test session). In the shift session, the performance was comparable irrespective of the drug injected. However, in the test session, the mean peak time (an index of duration memory) of the M1 + NMDA co-blockade group, but not of the D1 + NMDA co-blockade group, was lower than that of the control group (Experiments 1 and 2). In Experiment 3, the effect of the co-blockade of M1 and NMDA receptors was replicated. Moreover, sole blockade of M1 receptors induced the same effect as M1 and NMDA blockade. These results suggest that in the dorsal striatum, the M1 receptor, but not the D1 or NMDA receptors, is involved in the consolidation of duration memory.
