A mild impairment in reversal learning in a bowl‐digging substrate deterministic task but not other cognitive tests in the Dlg2+/− rat model of genetic risk for psychiatric disorder

Simonas Griesius,
Sophie Waldron,
Katie A. Kamenish
et al.

Abstract: Variations in the Dlg2 gene have been linked to increased risk for psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorders, intellectual disability, bipolar disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and pubertal disorders. Recent studies have reported disrupted brain circuit function and behaviour in models of Dlg2 knockout and haploinsufficiency. Specifically, deficits in hippocampal synaptic plasticity were found in heterozygous Dlg2+/− rats suggesting impacts on hippocampal depen… Show more

“…In summary, Griesius et al 1 show that disruption of the Dlg2 gene can cause a relatively specific reversal learning impairment. Whether hippocampal synaptic dysfunction, which is prominent in the Dlg2+/− rats, contributes to reversal learning impairment remains to be determined.…”

“…A main focus of neuroscience research on reversal learning has been on fronto‐striatal mechanisms, especially involving orbitofrontal cortex. 2 , 4 However, Griesius et al 1 highlight that Dlg2+/− rats show reduced hippocampal synaptic integration and plasticity 5 and propose this may contribute to reversal learning impairments (although Dlg2+/− rats probably have other neuronal dysfunction, outside the hippocampus, that may explain the impairments). Indeed, human 6 , 7 and animal model 8 , 9 studies have implicated the hippocampus in reversal learning (for a discussion of how hippocampal contributions to reversal learning may relate to theories of hippocampal function, see Reference 8 ).…”
