Enhanced Retrieval of Taste Associative Memory by Chemogenetic Activation of Locus Coeruleus Norepinephrine Neurons

Abstract: The ability of animals to retrieve memories stored in response to the environment is essential for behavioral adaptation. Norepinephrine (NE)-containing neurons in the brain play a key role in the modulation of synaptic plasticity underlying various processes of memory formation. However, the role of the central NE system in memory retrieval remains unclear. Here, we developed a novel chemogenetic activation strategy exploiting insect olfactory ionotropic receptors (IRs), termed "IRmediated neuronal activation… Show more

“…Future expansion of the odor profiling of these species’ receptors will be essential to understand the pressures in the natural world that have selected for olfactory receptor proteins with new chemical recognition properties. Such knowledge, together with mechanistic insight into ligand/receptor interactions, may be useful to reengineer the ligand-binding specificities of receptors to create, for example, chemogenetic tools ( Fukabori et al, 2020 ) or design pharmacological manipulators to control the olfactory-guided behaviors of pest insects.…”

“…While our data support delayed gastric emptying and nausea contributing to the anorexia observed following LC GLP-1R activation, other factors may also be at play. Future work will examine the contribution of LC GLP-1Rs to LC NE signaling-induced changes in stress, anxiety, and aversion (71)(72)(73) in addition to arousal (74), foraging behavior (75), and sensory encoding that includes taste perception (76,77); all of which may contribute to the observed food intake reduction following GLP-1R activation in the LC. Given that hindbrain PPG neurons are activated by stress including gastric distention and visceral malaise (50), it is possible that the LC mediates a range of responses to homeostatic challenge.…”

“…In addition to the hippocampus, the amygdala is another important region in memory encoding and retrieval [97,[128][129][130]. Both the amygdala and the hippocampus are directly innervated by the LC [131,132].…”
