title: [Effect of DN-1417 on ataxia in Rolling mouse Nagoya and Staggerer mouse in comparison with the effect of TRH].
abstract: The behavioral effects of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and a TRH analogue, DN-1417 (butyrolactone-carbonyl-L-histidyl-L-prolinamide citrate) on the ataxia of Rolling mouse Nagoya and Staggerer mouse were examined using open-field methods. The ataxic gaits improved after injection of TRH (25 mg/kg, ip) and DN-1417 (5.25 mg/kg ip), compared with injection of saline. As a whole, the improving effect of DN-1417 persisted about 2 or more times as long in duration as that of TRH.
