Changes in locomotor activity and passive avoidance task performance induced by cerebral ischemia in Mongolian gerbils.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We investigated changes in locomotor activity, passive avoidance task performance, and hippocampal CA1 neurons induced by cerebral ischemia in Mongolian gerbils to examine the relation between these behavioral changes and CA1 neuronal damage. METHODS Spontaneous locomotor activity was measured using the open field method before and 1, 3, 7, 14, or 28 days after 1- to 5-...
متن کاملMinocycline improves memory in a passive avoidance task following cerebral ischemia-reperfusion by enhancing hippocampal synaptic plasticity and restoring antioxidant enzyme activity in rats
Introduction: Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in the impairment of synaptic plasticity following cerebral ischemia which ultimately results in memory dysfunction. Hence, application of antioxidant agents could be beneficial in the management of memory deficit after brain ischemia. Minocycline is a tetracycline antibiotic with antioxidant effect. The main objective of this work was to asse...
متن کاملEffect of policosanol on cerebral ischemia in Mongolian gerbils.
Policosanol is a mixture of higher aliphatic primary alcohols isolated from sugar cane wax, whose main component is octacosanol. An inhibitory effect of policosanol on platelet aggregation and cerebral ischemia in animal models has been reported. Thus, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of policosanol on cerebral ischemia induced by unilateral carotid ligation and bil...
متن کاملDopaminergic neurotransmission triggers ischemia-induced hyperactivity in Mongolian gerbils.
It is recognized that sustained ischemia-induced hyperactivity is related to abnormalities in dopamine function. However, it is unclear that dopaminergic neurotransmission triggers such ischemia-induced hyperactivity. Therefore, the relationship between dopaminergic neurotransmission and ischemia-induced hyperactivity was investigated in an animal model using Mongolian gerbils. When haloperidol...
متن کاملTime Course of Changes in Passive Avoidance and Y-maze Performance in Male Diabetic Rats
Diabetes mellitus is accompanied with disturbances in learning, memory, and cognitive skills in the human society and experimental animals. Therefore, this research study was conducted to evaluate time-dependent changes in passive avoidance and Y-maze performance in male diabetic rats. For this purpose, male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control and diabetic groups. For induction of di...
