متن کاملInteractions between response stereotypy and memory strategies on the eight-arm radial maze.
Three groups of water-deprived rats collected water from the ends of the 8-arm radial maze. Sighted subjects, and subjects blinded either with or without pre-enucleation experience on the radial maze, all retrieved the water efficiently. Most of the subjects exhibited the same response stereotypy, regularly choosing 8 adjacent arms of the maze, then stopping in the center of the maze. The strat...
متن کاملMemory-enhancing Properties of Hypericum scabrum Essential Oil in a Rat Model of Dementia
Hypericum species are known to be used in traditional therapies. H. scabrum L. is one of the Hypericum species distributed in Turkey. In this study, we evaluated the effects of Hypericum scabrum essential oil inhalation on spatial memory in scopolamine-induced amnesic rats. The essential oil was characterized by GC-FID and GC-MS system. Male wistar rats were divided into 6 groups: control; scop...
متن کاملMelatonin improves spatial navigation memory in male diabetic rats
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of melatonin as an antioxidant on spatial navigation memory in male diabetic rats. Thirty-two male white Wistar rats weighing 200 ± 20 g were divided into four groups, randomly: control, melatonin, diabetic and melatonin-treated diabetic. Experimental diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of 50 mg kg-1 streptozotocin. Melatonin...
متن کاملSpatial Memory and Instrumental Conditioning
Short-term spatial memory of rats was studied in a 12-arm radial tubular maze. Correct performance does not depend on maze structure which affects, however, thse rat's trajectory through the maze. Rats overtrained in the 12-arm radial maze show considerable transfer of the habit to a maze consisting of 12 parallel alleys entered froin a common choice area. When isolated maze channels equipped w...
