Ginkgo biloba (Ginkgoaceae) is an ancient Chinese tree which has been cultivated and held
sacred for its health-promoting properties. There is substantial experimental evidence to …

Ginkgo biloba extracts such as EGb-761 have been suggested to have a multitude of
beneficial effects on CNS function, from enhancing cognitive function in dementia to facilitating …

Reports of cannabinoid CB2 receptor protein in the brain have been ambiguous. We therefore
tested for CB2 immunoreactivity in the rat brain using immunofluorescence. We detected …

The hippocampus is thought to be important for spatial representation processes that depend
on the integration of both self-movement and allocentric cues. The vestibular system is a …

For more than a decade, evidence from animal studies has suggested that damage to the
vestibular system leads to deficits in spatial navigation which are indicative of impaired spatial …

The aim of this review is to summarise and critically evaluate studies of vestibular compensation
published over the last 2 years, with emphasis on those concerned with the molecular …

The hippocampus has a major role in memory for spatial location. Theta is a rhythmic
hippocampal EEG oscillation that occurs at ∼8 Hz during voluntary movement and that may have …

Studies in both experimental animals and human patients have demonstrated that
peripheral vestibular lesions, especially bilateral lesions, are associated with spatial memory …

Previous studies of rats with bilateral vestibular deafferentation (BVD) have demonstrated
spatial memory deficits, suggesting adverse effects on the hippocampus. However, the longest …

Damage to the peripheral vestibular system results in a syndrome of ocular motor and
postural abnormalities that partially and gradually abate over time in a process known as ‘…
