I n rats, the effects of an intracerebroventricular (ICV) nicotinic agonist nicotine (NIC), the nicotinic antagonist mecamylamine (MEC), and combinations of NIC + MEC were assessed in a radial-arm maze (RAM). In experiment 1, exploratory behavior was assessed in untrained rats (N = 13). The rats rec
Chronic oral administration of cannabis extract to rats (daily A 9-tetrahydrocannabinol dose 20 mg/kg) was examined in three experiments for its residual effect on radialarm maze learning following a 1-month drug-free period. Learning a simple eight-arm maze was significantly impaired in rats treate
Hypoxia has generally been reported to impair learning and memory. Here we established a hypoxia-enhanced model. Intermittent hypoxia (IH) was simulated at 2 km (16.0% O2) or 5 km (10.8% O2) in a hypobaric chamber for 4 h/day from birth to 1, 2, 3, or 4 week(s), respectively. Spatial learning and me
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.
