We comment on ways in which Lake et al. advance our understanding of the machinery of intelligence and offer suggestions. The first set concerns animal-level versus human-level intelligence. The second concerns the urgent need to address ethical issues when evaluating the state of artificial intelligence.

The Efficiency of Chitosan Against Tert Butylhydroquinone (TBHQ)-Induced Neurobehavioral Changes and Toxicity Effects in Male Rats.
Front Biosci (Landmark Ed)
January 2025
Department of Zoology, College of Science, King Saud University, 11451 Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Background: We investigated chitosan's protective effects against tertiary butylhydroquinone (TBHQ)-induced toxicity in adult male rats, focusing on cognitive functions and oxidative stress in the brain, liver, and kidneys.
Methods: Rats were divided into four groups (n = 8/group): (1) Control, (2) Chitosan only, (3) TBHQ only, and (4) Chitosan + TBHQ.
Results: TBHQ exposure led to significant cognitive impairments and increased oxidative stress, marked by elevated malondialdehyde (MDA) and decreased superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) levels.
Ventral hippocampus to nucleus accumbens shell circuit regulates approach decisions during motivational conflict.

Successful resolution of approach-avoidance conflict (AAC) is fundamentally important for survival, and its dysregulation is a hallmark of many neuropsychiatric disorders, and yet the underlying neural circuit mechanisms are not well elucidated. Converging human and animal research has implicated the anterior/ventral hippocampus (vHPC) as a key node in arbitrating AAC in a region-specific manner. In this study, we sought to target the vHPC CA1 projection pathway to the nucleus accumbens (NAc) to delineate its contribution to AAC decision-making, particularly in the arbitration of learned reward and punishment signals, as well as innate signals.

Recent research has identified sex-dependent links between risk taking behaviors, approach-avoidance bias and alcohol intake. However, preclinical studies have typically assessed alcohol drinking using a singular dimension of intake (i.e.

Categorization is an essential task for sensory perception. Individuals learn category labels using a variety of strategies to ensure that sensory signals, such as sounds or images, can be assigned to proper categories. Categories are often learned on the basis of extreme examples, and the boundary between categories can differ among individuals.

Department of Animal Husbandry, Gujarat, India. Electronic address:
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the top 10 global public health threats. One Health approach is needed to tackle antimicrobial resistance as most antimicrobials used in animals are also used in humans and affect the environment. Although the knowledge and attitudes of personnel in the human healthcare sector are studied more frequently in Gujarat, veterinarians' approaches also play a pivotal role in attaining antimicrobial stewardship.
