title: A synthetic retinoid Am80 (tamibarotene) rescues the memory deficit caused by scopolamine in a passive avoidance paradigm.
abstract: Memory deficit in rats treated with scopolamine was rescued by several synthetic retinoids, RAR-ligands (Am80, Am555S, Tp80) and an RXR-ligand (HX630). These results may have implications for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, age-related dementia, Parkinson's disease, and other neurological disorders.
