Optical Imaging of Odor Preference Memory in the Rat
Olfactory Bulb. J. Neurophysiol. 87: 3156-3159, 2002. Early olfactory preference learning in rat pups occurs
when novel odors are paired with reinforcing tactile stimulation that activate the noradrenergic locus coeruleus. Pairing of odor and a
noradrenergic agonist in the olfactory bulb is both necessary and
sufficient for odor preference learning. This suggests the memory
change occurs in the olfactory bulb. Previous electrophysiological experiments demonstrated that odor preference training induces an
increase in the field excitatory postsynaptic potential to olfactory
nerve input and an alteration, after training, in glomerular [14C]2- deoxyglucose uptake and in single-unit
responses of principal cells. We investigate here whether, 24 h
after olfactory preference training, there is an alteration in
intrinsic optical signals at the glomerular level. Six-day-old rat pups
were trained, as previously, for a peppermint odor preference. Trained
pups and control littermates were subjected to imaging of odor-induced intrinsic optical signals 1 day after the training session. Trained pups exhibited significantly larger responses to the peppermint compared with untrained littermates previously exposed to the same
odor. The response of trained pups to a control odor (amyl acetate)
was, however, not significantly different from that of untrained
littermates. These observations demonstrate that odor preference memory
can be read-out by optical imaging techniques.
