摘要
Behavior of ovariectomized rats was studied after chronic administration of serotonin 1A receptor agonist 8-OH-DPAT alone or in combination with 17β-estradiol for 14 days. The effect of 8-OH-DPAT on learning was evaluated in the conditioned passive avoidance task. Behavioral activity in elevated plus-maze and open field was recorded. Administration of 8-OH-DPAT to ovariectomized female rats increased the number of entries into open arms of the maze and the time spent there. Combination treatment of ovariectomized animals with 8-OH-DPAT and 17β-estradiol decreased total locomotor and emotional activity in the open field. Administration of 8-OH-DPAT alone or in combination with 17β-estradiol improved performance of the conditioned passive avoidance response.
