Title: Facilitating effect of oxiracetam and piracetam on acquisition of discrete two-way shuttle avoidance in normal mice. Author: Kuribara H, Tadokoro S. Journal: Jpn J Pharmacol; 1988 Dec; 48(4):494-8. PubMed ID: 3244203. Abstract: Effects of oxiracetam and piracetam on acquisition of the discrete two-way shuttle avoidance response were investigated in normal mice of the dd strain. When oxiracetam or piracetam was administered only once immediately before the training session, the mice showed a greater number of avoidance responses in comparison with the saline-treated control mice, with the maximum effect at 30 mg/kg of oxiracetam and 100 mg/kg of piracetam. These results suggest that oxiracetam and piracetam facilitate the avoidance acquisition in normal mice.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
