What is Involvement of Hormonal and Neuromodulatory Systems in the Regulation of Memory Storage about?
Lasting memory is not formed at the moment that new information is acquired. It is well known that retention can be markedly influenced by treatments administered shortly after learning . Such fi ndings have generally been interpreted as indicating that the treat ments affect retention by altering posttraining neural processes underlying the storage of newly acquired information . The hypo thesis that memory traces become consolidated over time was originally proposed by dual-trace hypo thesis of memory, which proposed that lasting memory traces are produced by the activity of temporary or short-term memory traces, provided a more explicit view of a possible basis of consolidation. Studies investigating the consolidation of lasting memory traces have focused to a large degree on conditions that disrupt retention. It is clear that retrograde amnesia can be produced by a variety of experimental treatments administered posttraining . More importantly, susceptibility to retrograde amnesia has been conserved in evolution. Evidence that posttraining treatments alter retention in a retrograde fashion has been obtained in studies with humans, monkeys, cats, rodents, birds, fi sh, and insec
