| Research Abstract |
We investigated the roles of cerebellum and the higher nervous systems in a motor learning task, the classical eyeblink conditioning, in which the basic neural circuit has been elucidated in rabbits. We found that the acquisition and retention of the memory in this task depend on the ipsilateral cerebellum in rats, similarly in rabbits. We also examined the cerebellar dependency in DBA/2 mice, which have an abnormal higher nervous system. DBA/2 mice showed a similar dependency on the ipsilateral cerebellum, which was different from the results reported in C57BL/6 mice.
