Title: [The role of the epiphysis in forming a conditioned reaction to time in rats]. Author: Arushanian EB, Vodolazhskaia MG. Journal: Zh Vyssh Nerv Deiat Im I P Pavlova; 1998; 48(1):54-9. PubMed ID: 9583164. Abstract: Pinealectomy impeded formation of time-conditioned reflex in the mode of fixed intervals. This was accompanied by a shortening of reaction latency and runs as well as by an increase in the number of intertrial responses. On the contrary, melatonin injection (0.1 mg/kg) facilitated conditioning by restricting the locomotion. It is suggested that pineal compounds have specific chronotropic properties.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
