1.
Robinson A, Bucci D
Neuroscience . 2013 Oct; 256:53-60. PMID: 24157927
Exercising during pregnancy has been shown to improve spatial learning and short-term memory, as well as increase brain-derived neurotrophic factor mRNA levels and hippocampal cell survival in juvenile offspring. However,...

Hopkins M, Davis F, Vantieghem M, Whalen P, Bucci D
Neuroscience . 2012 May; 215:59-68. PMID: 22554780
The effects of regular exercise versus a single bout of exercise on cognition, anxiety, and mood were systematically examined in healthy, sedentary young adults who were genotyped to determine brain-derived...
3.
Hopkins M, Nitecki R, Bucci D
Neuroscience . 2011 Aug; 194:84-94. PMID: 21839807
It is well established that physical exercise can enhance hippocampal-dependent forms of learning and memory in laboratory animals, commensurate with increases in hippocampal neural plasticity (brain-derived neurotrophic factor [BDNF] mRNA/protein,...

Zhao H, Bucci D, Weltzin M, Drew K
Behav Brain Res . 2004 Apr; 151(1-2):219-24. PMID: 15084438
The present study was designed to assess effects of aversive stimuli on learning and memory in wild-caught Arctic ground squirrels (AGS, Spermophilus parryii) using an active avoidance learning paradigm. Results...
5.
Bucci D, Phillips R, Burwell R
Behav Neurosci . 2000 Nov; 114(5):882-94. PMID: 11085602
The role of the postrhinal cortex (POR) and the perirhinal cortex (PER) in processing relational or contextual information was examined with Pavlovian fear conditioning. Rats with electrolytic or neurotoxic lesions...
6.
Baxter M, Bucci D, Holland P, Gallagher M
Behav Neurosci . 1999 Aug; 113(3):486-95. PMID: 10443776
Previous studies indicated that changes in attentional processing of conditioned stimuli (CSs) are regulated by the basal forebrain (BF) cholinergic system. In those studies, destruction of BF innervation of the...
7.
Bucci D, Conley M, Gallagher M
Neuroreport . 1999 May; 10(5):941-5. PMID: 10321464
The thalamic connectivity and basal forebrain cholinergic input to the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) of Long-Evans rats was examined using combined retrograde tracing and immunocytochemical methods. As in previous studies,...
8.
Bucci D, Holland P, Gallagher M
J Neurosci . 1998 Sep; 18(19):8038-46. PMID: 9742170
Recent research suggests that the basal forebrain cholinergic neurons innervating the cortex play a role in attentional functions in both primates and rodents. Among the cortical targets of these projections...

Bucci D, Rosen D, Gallagher M
Neurobiol Aging . 1998 Jul; 19(3):227-32. PMID: 9661997
The effect of age on pilocarpine-induced expression of the immediate-early gene c-fos was examined in the hippocampus and cortex of Long-Evans rats. Rats were treated with either pilocarpine (25 mg/kg)...
10.
Baxter M, Bucci D, Sobel T, WILLIAMS M, Gorman L, Gallagher M
Neuroreport . 1996 May; 7(8):1417-20. PMID: 8856689
The role of the basal forebrain cholinergic system in learning and memory has held considerable interest since the discovery of cholinergic neurodegeneration in the basal forebrain in Alzheimer's disease. Contrary...
