[Effects of hemiextirpation of gonadal glands on the conditioned reflex avoidance behavior in male and female rats].
A comparative analysis has been made of the influence of hemiextirpation of the gonadal glands on realization of conditioned-reflex activity in rats of both sexes. Learning was assessed in active and passive avoidance paradigms. It was established that hemigonadectomy in male rats or hemiovariectomy in female rats fail to modify acquiring and reproducing active avoidance and passive reactions as compared to the controls. It is suggested that hemiextirpation of the gonadal glands does not significantly influence realization of conditioned-reflex activity in rats of both sexes.
