The effects of biological sex and gonadal hormones on learning strategy in adult rats

WR Hawley, EM Grissom, HE Barratt, TS Conrad… - Physiology & …, 2012 - Elsevier
When learning to navigate toward a goal in a spatial environment, rodents employ distinct
learning strategies that are governed by specific regions of the brain. In the early stages of …

Activation of G-protein-coupled receptor 30 is sufficient to enhance spatial recognition memory in ovariectomized rats

WR Hawley, EM Grissom, NM Moody… - Behavioural Brain …, 2014 - Elsevier
In ovariectomized rats, administration of estradiol, or selective estrogen receptor agonists
that activate either the α or β isoforms, have been shown to enhance spatial cognition on a …

Testosterone modulates spatial recognition memory in male rats

WR Hawley, EM Grissom, RC Martin, MB Halmos… - Hormones and …, 2013 - Elsevier
A growing body of research indicates that testosterone influences spatial cognition in male
rats; however, the overwhelming majority of studies have been conducted on tasks motivated …

Learning strategy is influenced by trait anxiety and early rearing conditions in prepubertal male, but not prepubertal female rats

EM Grissom, WR Hawley, SS Bromley-Dulfano… - Neurobiology of learning …, 2012 - Elsevier
Rodents solve dual-solution tasks that require navigation to a goal by adopting either a
hippocampus-dependent place strategy or a striatum-dependent stimulus–response strategy. A …

Effects of early rearing conditions on cognitive performance in prepubescent male and female rats

KA Frankola, AL Flora, AK Torres, EM Grissom… - Neurobiology of learning …, 2010 - Elsevier
The interactions between a mother and her offspring during early postnatal life impact cognitive
development in altricial species. The current study examined the influence of postnatal …

Biological sex influences learning strategy preference and muscarinic receptor binding in specific brain regions of prepubertal rats

EM Grissom, WR Hawley, KS Hodges… - …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
According to the theory of multiple memory systems, specific brain regions interact to determine
how the locations of goals are learned when rodents navigate a spatial environment. A …

The relationships between trait anxiety, place recognition memory, and learning strategy

WR Hawley, EM Grissom, GP Dohanich - Behavioural brain research, 2011 - Elsevier
Rodents learn to navigate mazes using various strategies that are governed by specific regions
of the brain. The type of strategy used when learning to navigate a spatial environment is …

Effect of botulinum‐A toxin injection into bulbospongiosus muscle on ejaculation latency in male rats

…, WR Hawley, GF Lasker, EM Grissom… - The Journal of …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
Introduction Premature ejaculation (PE) is the most common male sexual dysfunction. A
variety of pharmacotherapeutic strategies have been employed to treat men suffering with …

Evidence for ligand-independent activation of hippocampal estrogen receptor-α by IGF-1 in hippocampus of ovariectomized rats

EM Grissom, JM Daniel - Endocrinology, 2016 - academic.oup.com
In the absence of ovarian estrogens, increased levels of estrogen receptor (ER)α in the
hippocampus are associated with improvements in cognition. In vitro evidence indicates that …

Neuroestrogen-dependent transcriptional activity in the brains of ERE-luciferase reporter mice following short-and long-term ovariectomy

NE Baumgartner, EM Grissom, KJ Pollard… - Eneuro, 2019 - eneuro.org
Previous work has demonstrated that estrogen receptors are transcriptionally active in the
absence of ovarian estrogens. The current work aims to determine whether brain-derived …
