Nigella sativa Oil Enhances the Spatial Working Memory Performance of Rats on a Radial Arm Maze

Nigella sativa, an established historical and religion-based remedy for a wide range of health problems, is a herbal medicine known to have antioxidant and neuroprotective effects. This present study investigated the effect of Nigella sativa oil (NSO) administration on the spatial memory performance (SMP) of male adult rats using eight-arm radial arm maze (RAM). Twelve Sprague Dawley rats (7-9 ...

The Interaction Between Spatial Working and Reference Memory in Rats on a Radial Maze

Estrogen enhances performance of female rats during acquisition of a radial arm maze.

Estrogen can influence the expression of behaviors not associated directly with reproduction, including learning and memory. However, the effects of estrogen on learning and memory in mammals are complex, dependent on a variety of factors. The radial arm maze is a traditional experimental task that takes advantage of the natural foraging strategy of rats and provides an appropriate measure for ...
