The ability to utilize oxygen has been shown to affect a wide variety of physiological factors often considered beneficial for survival. As the ability to learn can be seen as one of the core factors of survival in mammals, we studied whether selective breeding for endurance running, an indication of aerobic capacity, also has an effect on learning. Rats selectively bred over 23 generations for their ability to perform forced treadmill running were trained in an appetitively motivated discrimination-reversal classical conditioning task, an alternating T-maze task followed by a rule change (from a shift-win to stay-win rule) and motor learning task. In the discrimination-reversal and T-maze tasks, the high-capacity runner (HCR) rats outperformed the low-capacity runner (LCR) rats, most notably in the phases requiring flexible cognition. In the Rotarod (motor-learning) task, the HCR animals were overall more agile but learned at a similar rate with the LCR group as a function of training. We conclude that the intrinsic ability to utilize oxygen is associated especially with tasks requiring plasticity of the brain structures implicated in flexible cognition.

Genetically determined poor aerobic capacity is detrimental for flexible cognition
Ekman, Carita; Hjelm, Sini (2013)Monet tutkimukset osoittavat, että fyysisellä harjoittelulla on myönteisiä vaikutuksia sekä ihmisten että eläinten kognitiivisiin kykyihin, kuten oppimiseen. Erityisesti aerobisen kapasiteetin taustalla olevan geeniperimän ... -
Hippocampal theta activity is selectively associated with contingency detection but not discrimination in rabbit discrimination-reversal eyeblink conditioning
Nokia, Miriam; Wikgren, Jan (Wiley, 2010)The relative power of the hippocampal theta-band (∼6 Hz) activity (theta ratio) is thought to reflect a distinct neural state and has been shown to affect learning rate in classical eyeblink conditioning in rabbits. We ... -
Rapid changes in bodily and neural states affect learning
Waselius, Tomi (Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2018)Declarative memories consist of the past events and factual information that can be recalled. One of the most popular experimental paradigms used in studying long-term memory formation is classical conditioning. Trace ... -
Periodised Carbohydrate Intake Does Not Affect Substrate Oxidation but May Contribute to Endurance Capacity
Salokannel, Meri M.; Hakulinen, Oona-Mari; Ahtiainen, Juha P. (Routledge, 2023)The aim of this study was to investigate whether periodising carbohydrate intake around specific training sessions will enhance endurance training adaptations. Seventeen healthy recreationally endurance-trained males ...
