Popis: | This study was performed to estimate ameliorating effect of aqueous antler extract (AAE) on memory impairments induced by scopolamine (SCOP, 2 mg/kg, i.p.). Tacrine (THA, 10 mg/kg, p.o.) was used as a positive control. The passive avoidance test and Y-maze test results showed that a single AAE (200 mg/kg, p.o.) administration significantly restored memory impairment. Moreover, AAE or THA treatment significantly reduced the escape latency prolonged by SCOP during trial sessions in the Morris water maze test. In vivo study, AAE significantly inhibited acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity (p |
