title: [Comparative evaluation of memory-regulating neuropeptides before and after electric shock in albino rats].
abstract: Antiamnestic properties of memory neuropeptide--modulators and their effect on learning were studied as well as consolidation of oligopeptide ACTH4-7, vasopressin, oxytocin, leu enkephalin and the melanocyte inhibiting factor. Effect of these neuropeptides on the rat higher nervous activity is bath strong and specific: ACTH4-7 and leu enkephalin speed up the primary learning whereas vasopressin and oxytocin improve long--term memory. Peptides are able to reverse retrograde as well as anterograde amnesia and to preserve previously formed habits from disturbance by electric shock. Vasopressin and the melanocyte inhibiting factor are the strongest antiamnestic factors.
