Relay Functions of Hippocampal Monoamines in Acquired and Inborn Forms of Behavior/Physiological Mechanisms of Complex Behavior in Anthropoids : Physiology and General Biology Revi Book

Physiological Mechanisms of Complex Behavior in Antrhopoids reviews behavioral studies of anthropoids. Fifty years of intensive study indicate that there is a wide range of orientating-searching, imitating and subject-instrumental activity, image and conditioned memory related to the ability of apes to rapidly from multiple temporary connections and the plasticity of conditioned responses in a changing signal environment. Synthesis of properties of higher nervous activity in apes makes them a model of the crucial link in the evolution of primates, which provided a basis for the emergence of ancient man.
Relay Functions of Hippocampal Monoamines in Acquired and Inborn Forms of Behavior examines the role of serotonin (5-HT) and noradrenaline (NA) of the hippocampus in conditioned and unconditioned positive and negative reflexes in studies with cats and rats. The resulting data suggests that hippocampal monoamines are responsible for the switch of behavior from realization of acquired
