Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of propofol on learning and amnesia in the old miceMethods The normal Kunming mice were trained in a one-trial, step-through, light-dark passive avoidance paradigm Propofol (50 or 100 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally 15 min before training ,and propofol (100 or 200 mg/kg) separately 30 min and 6 h in the immediate post-training period The latency of escaping into a darkened chamber and the wrong number of entering darkened chamber were recorded Animals were tested for recall at 24th h post-training time The activity of acetyltransferase was determined with radiommunoassay in the brain 3h after administrationResults All control animals were liable to learn the task as judged by their increased latencies to enter the darkened chamber at 24th h post-training time After administration with propofol 50 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg, the latencies were reduced (246 and 208,repectively), compared with control (P
