Single-Cell Mech of Invertebrate Beh Change
Aplysia as an Experimental Animal
Aplysia
marine invertebrate related to common slug
popular animal for studies of physiology of learning
compared to vertebrates it has fewer neurones, many large and easy to study
Unlike vertebrates, aplysia neurones are virtually identical from one individual to another so diff INV can study properties of same neurone
commonly studied behaviour: withdrawal response
if someone touches the siphon, mantle or gill of aplysia, it vigurously withdraws irritated struture
INV traces neural path fro touch receptors to motor neurones that direct response.
Using this neural pathway, INV studied changes in behaviour as a result of experience.
Habituation in Aplysia
Habituation
decrease in response to a stimulus that's presented repeatedly and accompanied by no change in other stimuli
if clock chimes every hour, you respond less and less.
Repeated stimulation of Aplysia's gills with brief jet of seawater, withdraws at first but after repetition, stops responding.
Decline in response is not due to muscle fatigue because after habituation, direct stimulation of motor neurone produces full-size muscle contraction
Rule out changes in sensory neurone
Sensory neurone still gives full, normal response to stimulation but fails to excite motor neurone as much as before
Kupfermann et al (1970)
habituation in Aplysia depends on change in synapse between sensory neuron and motor neuron
Sensitization in Aplysia
the experiencing of unexpected, intense pain, temporarily react more strongly than usual to other strong, sudden stimuli
sensitisation
increase in response to mild stimuli as result of exposure to more intense stimuli
A strong stimulus almost anywhere on Aplysia's skin intensifies a later withdrawal response to a touch
INV traced sensitisation to changes at identified synapses.
through stimulation on skin excites facilitating interneuron that releases serotonin (5-HT) onto presynaptic terminals of many sensory neurons
serotonin blocks potassium channels in these membranes
Results in after later action potentials, membrane takes longer than usual to repolarize
Therefore, presynaptic neurone continues releasing its NT for longer than usual
repeating this process causes sensory neurone to synthesise new proteins that produce long-term sensitisation
research shows how it's possible to explain one example of behavioural plasticity in terms of molecular events
Later studies explored mechanisms of classical and instrumental conditioning in Aplysia
