A time behind a group of scientists belonging to the University of Navarra has started an investigation of a molecular switch that apparently activate memory and learning in times of brain development. The results of the investigation were published in the journal Neuron, a community devoted to information about advances in science.
The head of the Laboratory of Neurobiology of SUMMIT (Center Applied Medical Investigation) and the project, Isabelle Perez-Otaño argues that the brain is formed by complex networks that transmit and acknowledge the information through neurons.
Through this investigation we sought to achieve successful results as those of the study verified that only three years old, suffers from the root of a radical change and the brain starts to remember and store the product this action.
What has been discovered is that the NR3 gene functions as a click in the process. The experiment was conducted in mice. In any form the result was not satisfactory because the animal exhibited defects in sinapsis.
Finally, after removing the gene expression NR3, learning and human memory is stimulated. Among the factors the study found abnormal expression of the gene NR3 since it could cause Parkinson's or schizophrenia.
