The Steroid Sulfatase Inhibitor (p-O-Sulfamoyl) - Tetradecanoyl Tyramine (DU-14) Enhances Memory Retention in Passive Avoidance in Rats with Hippocampal Cholinergic Deficit
… medial septum, and tested using a step-through passive avoidance paradigm. There was a greater than 80% decrease in ChAT activity in the hippocampi of animals treated with SAP (p < 0.0001). There was also a 24.1% decrease in ChAT activity of in the frontal cortex of SAP animals administered …

Immunological investigations into synaptic plasticity
… the study of synaptic plasticity resulting from passive avoidance training in the chick and long-term potentiation in the rat. These studies fell into three categories: 1) the disruption of memory for a one-trial passive avoidance task by intracranial injection of an anti-postsynaptic density …

Advertising distractor devaluation under perceptual and cognitive load
Advertising avoidance has long been considered as an active elimination of ad effect after conscious processing. However, recent research demonstrates that ignoring (passive avoidance) is also a common strategy used by Internet viewers when they encounter a distracting ad. The act of ignoring due …

Generality of learning differences in mice genetically selected for differences in brain weight
… environment and tested on open field, active avoidance, water maze, operant discrimination, and passive avoidance tasks. Mice from one foundation stock yielded mice with high and low brain weight. The control groups for this selection were composed of one group of medium brain weight mice …

The Effect of Injury Severity on Behavioral Tasks Used for the Assessment of Cognitive Functioning Following Traumatic Brain Injury
… (NOR) task, Morris water maze (MWM), and passive avoidance (PA) task. Four days prior to injury, Dig rats were trained to dig in unscented sand and MWM rats were trained to locate a hidden platform positioned in the northeast quadrant of the MWM. Following training, bilateral controlled …

Role of Dopamine D3 receptor in the regulation of memory related genes
… the intracellular signaling pathways using Passive avoidance (PA) tasks. In the first study we evaluated the expression levels of APP and NF1, two genes implicated in cognitive function, in wild-type (WT) and D3-/- mice subjected to the single trial step-through PA paradigm. Results showed …

Neonatal septal lesions and early malnutrition: interactive effects on physiology and behavior
… had been housed under the mixed condition. In a passive avoidance task utilizing shock as the aversive stimulus, no differences between groups were observed. These data point to an important degree of interaction between sex, neonatal septal lesions, malnutrition and housing conditions in …
