Effect of naloxone and morphine on various forms of memory in the rat: Possible role of endogenous opiate mechanisms in memory consolidation

I Izquierdo - Psychopharmacology, 1979 - Springer
Naloxone, morphine, and morphine plus naloxone were injected IP into rats immediately
after training in several different behavioral tasks, and their effect on retention was evaluated …

Naloxone enhancement of memory

RB Messing, RA Jensen, JL Martinez Jr… - Behavioral and neural …, 1979 - Elsevier
Naloxone enhanced retention when systemically administered to male F344 rats after
training in a one-trial inhibitory avoidance task. Further, the memory-enhancing ability of …

Opiate states of memory: receptor mechanisms

LAB Slot, FC Colpaert - Journal of Neuroscience, 1999 - Soc Neuroscience
The present studies characterized the receptor mechanisms of morphine-induced states of
memory. Morphine (5 mg/kg) produced a state in which rats could learn and retrieve an …

Memory facilitation by naloxone is due to release of dopaminergic and beta-adrenergic systems from tonic inhibition

I Izquierdo, M Graudenz - Psychopharmacology, 1980 - Springer
The post-training IP administration of naloxone (0.8 mg/kg) facilitates memory consolidation
of the habituation of a rearing response to a tone in rats. Amphetamine (1.0–2.5 mg/kg or …

Antagonism of endogenous opioids modulates memory processing

JF Flood, A Cherkin, JE Morley - Brain research, 1987 - Elsevier
The studies reported here demonstrate that opioid antagonism enhances memory in two
classes of animals viz. Aves and Mammalia. In mice, immediate posttraining administration …

Effect of β-Endorphin and naloxone on acquisition, memory, and retrieval of shuttle avoidance and habituation learning in rats

I Izquierdo - Psychopharmacology, 1980 - Springer
Naloxone impairs acquisition of shuttle avoidance behavior (0.8 mg/kg IP) and habituation to
a rearing response to a tone (1.6 mg/kg IP) in rats. β-Endorphin (2 μg/kg IP) has no effect on …

Naloxone enhancement of memory processes: Effects of other opiate antagonists

M Gallagher - Behavioral and neural biology, 1982 - Elsevier
Previous research has demonstrated that naloxone, an opiate antagonist, facilitates time-
dependent memory processes. The present study was undertaken to determine whether the …

State dependent and/or direct memory retrieval by morphine in mice

M Nishimura, Y Shiigi, H Kaneto - Psychopharmacology, 1990 - Springer
Mice were trained in step-down and step-through type passive avoidance learning tasks and
given retention tests. Pre-training administration of morphine impaired retention, the effect …

Possible interaction between central cholinergic muscarinic and opioid peptidergic systems during memory consolidation in mice

CM Baratti, IB Introini, P Huygens - Behavioral and Neural Biology, 1984 - Elsevier
Naloxone (0.01–1.00 mg/kg, ip) facilitated retention of a one-trial inhibitory avoidance task,
when administered to male Rockland mice immediately after training, as indicated by …

M Farahmandfar, SM Karimian, N Naghdi… - Behavioural brain …, 2010 - Elsevier
In the present study, the effects of systemic administration of morphine on spatial memory
acquisition of a Morris water maze (MWM) task have been investigated in morphine …
