Intra-amygdala injections of corticotropin releasing factor facilitate inhibitory avoidance learning and reduce exploratory behavior in rats.

Abstract:

:The effects of intra-amygdala injections of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) on memory and exploratory behavior in rats were examined in the present study. Rats with chronically implanted cannulae received intra-amygdala injections of vehicle or CRF at a dose of 0.01, 0.1 or 1.0 micrograms, either immediately after the inhibitory avoidance training or prior to the open field activity test. Results indicated that while CRF at low (0.01 microgram) and high (1.0 micrograms) doses produced no significant effect on retention or exploration, immediate post-training intra-amygdala injections of CRF at the medium dose (0.1 microgram) significantly improved retention of the inhibitory avoidance response. The same dose of CRF, given shortly prior to the open field activity test, decreased locomotor activity, rearing and hole-poke responses in rats. These results suggest that the amygdala is one of the anatomical loci involved in CRF modulation of memory processing and exploration in rats. The implication of CRF in mediating the influences of stress on behavior is discussed.
