The effect of the nootropic drug pramiracetam (CI-879) on acquisition of a radial arm maze task was examined in the rat. Two doses of pramiracetam (7.5 mg/kg and 15 mg/kg) were administered daily prior to testing for 7 weeks in a 16-arm radial maze in which nine arms were baited with food. This proc

## Abstract The effects of ibotenate hippocampal lesions on discrimination performance in an eightβarm radial maze were investigated in mice, using a threeβstage paradigm in which the only parameter that varied among stages was the way the arms were presented. In the initial learning phase (stage 1
Nicotine and other nicotinic agonists have been found to improve performance in a variety of tasks, including the radial-arm maze to improve memory. There has been an active effort to develop novel nicotinic agonists for the treatment of cognitive dysfunction such as is seen in Alzheimer's disease.
