Rhythms of breathing and heartbeat are linked to each other as well as to rhythms of the brain. Our recent studies suggest that presenting the conditioned stimulus during expiration or during the diastolic phase of the cardiac cycle facilitates neural processing of that stimulus and improves learning an eyeblink classical conditioning task. To date, it has not been examined whether utilizing information from both respiration and cardiac cycle phases simultaneously allows even more efficient modulation of learning. Here we studied whether the timing of the conditioned stimulus to different cardiorespiratory rhythm phase combinations affects learning trace eyeblink conditioning in healthy young adults. The results were consistent with previous reports: Timing the conditioned stimulus to diastole during expiration was more beneficial for learning than timing it to systole during inspiration. Cardiac cycle phase seemed to explain most of this variation in learning at the behavioral level. Brain evoked potentials (N1) elicited by the conditioned stimulus and recorded using electroencephalogram were larger when the conditioned stimulus was presented to diastole during expiration than when it was presented to systole during inspiration. Breathing phase explained the variation in the N1 amplitude. To conclude, our findings suggest that non-invasive monitoring of bodily rhythms combined with closed-loop control of stimulation can be used to promote learning in humans. The next step will be to test if performance can also be improved in humans with compromised cognitive ability, such as in older people with memory impairments.

CA3–CA1 long‐term potentiation occurs regardless of respiration and cardiac cycle phases in urethane‐anesthetized rats
Nokia, Miriam S.; Waselius, Tomi; Penttonen, Markku (Wiley, 2023)Breathing and heartbeat synchronize to each other and to brain function and affect cognition in humans. However, it is not clear how cardiorespiratory rhythms modulate such basic processes as synaptic plasticity thought ... -

Hippocampal theta phase-contingent memory retrieval in delay and trace eyeblink conditioning
Waselius, Tomi; Pöllänen, Eveliina; Wikgren, Jan; Penttonen, Markku; Nokia, Miriam (Elsevier BV, 2017)Hippocampal theta oscillations (3–12 Hz) play a prominent role in learning. It has been suggested that encoding and retrieval of memories are supported by different phases of the theta cycle. Our previous study on trace ... -
EEG correlates of learning in classical eyeblink conditioning in humans
Rantanen, Emmi (2010)Ihmisten välillä on suurta vaihtelua oppimissuorituksessa klassisen ehdollistumisen tehtävissä laboratoriokokeissa. Erot kognitiivisissa kyvyissä voivat selittää osan vaihtelusta, mutta luultavampaa kuitenkin on että ...
