Abstract:
:Impaired learning has been shown as a consequence of isolation-rearing in a variety of paradigms. However, there are situations in which learning in isolation-reared rats is enhanced or unimpaired compared to socially reared rats. The present experiments investigated the effects of isolation rearing on place navigation in the Morris water maze. Two complementary paradigms were studied: isolation and socially reared rats were exposed to the water maze either without drug pretreatment or following systemic administration of scopolamine. Two conditions were examined: place learning and reversal learning. Male Lister hooded rats were either housed singly (isolation reared) or in groups of four (social reared) from weaning at 21 days of age. Six weeks later place learning and reversal learning were determined using the Morris water maze. The time taken to locate the submerged island (escape latency) was used as the measure of learning ability. The results showed that place learning, and reversal learning were enhanced in isolation reared rats compared to socially reared controls. Pretreatment with scopolamine (0.3 and 0.5 mg/kg, i.p.) produced a dose-related cognitive deficit as shown by an increase in the escape latency. Scopolamine (0.3 mg/kg) impaired both place and reversal learning but this was less pronounced in isolation compared to socially-reared rats. These results suggest that rearing in isolation may enhance spatial learning though central cholinergic mechanisms.
