title: [The molecular-cellular mechanisms of learning in the edible snail].
abstract: Elaboration of sensitization and associative habit of a rejection of a certain kind of food is accompanied by short-term and long-term changes of behaviour, bioelectric activity and the dynamics of bound calcium (Ca-b) level in the command neurons of defensive behaviour. Approximately in the course of an hour from the moment of the beginning of learning were revealed in general similar behavioural and neurophysiological effects during elaboration of both these habits. During elaboration of sensitization the responses to testing tactile stimulations, quinine and carrot juice applications appeared and/or markedly increased beginning from 50-60 minutes from the moment of the first sensitizing stimulation. During conditioning the responses to sensory stimulations characterizing the state of sensitization were also facilitated in 50-60 minutes. At the same time, responses to a conditioned stimulus appeared and increased approximately 30 minutes later. Protein synthesis blockers anisomycin and cyclohexamide blocked the development of the long-term neurophysiological and metabolic Ca-b effects during elaboration of sensitization.
