[Abstract] Exposure to environmental enrichment has beneficial effects on learning and memory, diverse neurobiological effects, and promotes recovery of function after brain injury. The effect of enrichment is produced by a combination of increased social interaction, physical activity, spatial complexity, and novelty. Procedures in the literature have, however, been idiosyncratic with poor consistency in the manner or extent to which protocols provide consistent enrichment. We provide an environmental enrichment protocol that can be easily replicated with minor details determined locally so that animals across cohorts and cages all experience a comparable level of enrichment. Procedures are outlined to generate and use a daily pool of suitably varied objects using a standardized format, with ...
[摘要] [摘要 ] 暴露于环境富集对学习和记忆,神经生物学多样的效果有益效果,和大脑后促进功能恢复injury.The 通过增加社会交往,体力活动,空间复杂性的一个组合产生富集效果,和新颖。然而,文献中的专业方法与协议提供一致的富集方式的一致性或程度不一致,因此我们提供了一种环境富集协议,该协议可以轻松地复制本地确定的次要细节,以便跨队列和笼养动物概述了程序以标准格式生成和使用每天适当变化的对象库的程序,这些对象在长达40天的连续时间内系统地变化,并与大量大鼠一起使用。一个适当大小的笼子,并定期转移食物和水的位置,以及 这些程序在不同的实验室和大鼠品系中产生了稳健的影响,从而改善了实验室内部和实验室之间的比较。非丰富的比较可能会有所不同,但通常包括将成组动物放在标准实验室中,没有物体,食物和水稳定富集是一种安全的非古生物学工具,用于检查寿命,脑功能障碍和损伤的动物模型中的行为和神经生物学过程。
