title: [Protective effect of xinxin capsule on learning and memory impairment in mice].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the effect of Xinxin Capsule on the scopolamine or ethanol induced impairment of learning and memory retention in mice.
  
  
  METHODS
  Step-through and Morris Water-maze methods, wer used to the protective effect of Xinxin Capsule(0.4, 0.8, 1.6 g.kg-1, ig, 16 d) on the scopolamine or ethanol induced impairment of learning and memory retention in mice.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The Capsule(0.8, 1.6 g.kg-1, ig,) can turn over the Scope so as to induce the impairment of learning, and the Capsule((0.4, 0.8, 1.6 g.kg-1, ig) can improve the ethanol induced impairment of memory retention in mice.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Xinxin Capsule helps regain as well as impair the learning and memory retention in mice.
