Front Behav Neurosci . 2023 Nov; 17:1251144. PMID: 38033479
Introduction: Chronic use of various compounds can have long-lasting effects on animal behavior, and some of these effects can be influenced by the environment. Many environmental enrichment protocols have the...

Corredor K, Marin D, Garcia C, Restrepo D, Martinez G, Cardenas F
J Am Assoc Lab Anim Sci . 2022 Apr; 61(3):234-240. PMID: 35379381
In research using animal models, subjects are commonly maintained under standard housing conditions, mainly because of the idea that enhancing welfare conditions could alter experimental data. Another common practice in...

Duran J, Sierra R, Corredor K, Cardenas F
J Psychiatr Res . 2021 Dec; 145:213-221. PMID: 34929471
Background: In the last decade, pharmacological strategies targeting reconsolidation after memory retrieval have shown promising efforts to attenuate persistent memories and overcome fear recovery. However, most reconsolidation inhibiting agents have...

Acevedo-Triana C, Rico J, Ortega L, Cardenas M, Cardenas F, Rojas M, et al.
J Vis Exp . 2020 Sep; (162). PMID: 32894260
Emotional memory has been primarily studied with fear-conditioning paradigms. Fear conditioning is a form of learning through which individuals learn the relationships between aversive events and otherwise neutral stimuli. The...

Leon L, Brandao M, Cardenas F, Parra D, Krahe T, Cruz A, et al.
PLoS One . 2020 Jul; 15(7):e0236039. PMID: 32702030
Background: The bidirectional selection of high and low anxiety-like behavior is a valuable tool for understanding the neurocircuits that are responsible for anxiety disorders. Our group developed two breeding lines...

Cuestas Torres D, Cardenas F
Rev Neurosci . 2020 Apr; 31(3):245-268. PMID: 32250284
The strength and efficiency of synaptic connections are affected by the environment or the experience of the individual. This property, called synaptic plasticity, is directly related to memory and learning...

Leon L, Castro-Gomes V, Zarate-Guerrero S, Corredor K, Mello Cruz A, Brandao M, et al.
Front Behav Neurosci . 2017 Jul; 11:117. PMID: 28736518
The role of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine [5-HT]) and 5-HT receptors in anxiety has been extensively studied, mostly without considering individual differences in trait anxiety. Our laboratory developed two lines of animals...

Acevedo-Triana C, Rojas M, Cardenas F
PeerJ . 2017 May; 5:e2976. PMID: 28503368
Background: Exercise can change cellular structure and connectivity (neurogenesis or synaptogenesis), causing alterations in both behavior and working memory. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of...

Uarquin D, Meyer J, Cardenas F, Rojas M
J Am Assoc Lab Anim Sci . 2016 Dec; 55(6):749-755. PMID: 27931312
In many species, chronic stress due to overcrowding during the juvenile period triggers several metabolic and behavioral pathologies in adulthood. The aim of this study was to determine whether a...

Sierra R, Nitola L, Duran J, Prieto D, Leon L, Cardenas F
Behav Brain Res . 2015 Aug; 296:379-383. PMID: 26306827
Animal models of fear extinction have an important clinical relevance to pharmacological and exposure-based therapies for anxiety disorders. Lesions of prefrontal structures impair fear extinction. On the other hand, d-cycloserine...
