The results of study testify to a stimulating effect of benzodiazepine receptors blocators RO15-1788 and RO15-3505 on reproduction of conditioned reaction of passive avoidance in mice disturbed as a result of various procedures-"psychogenic" and cycloheximide amnesia, extinction and forgetting. A considerable antiamnesic effect of the drugs on cycloheximide amnesia models is noted, in comparison with the "psychogenic" one. RO15-3505 is more effective in the processes of extraction of memory traces under amnesia. The obtained results testify to an important contribution of benzodiazepine-GABA-ergic brain systems in inhibitory regulation of the processes of stored memory traces reproduction.

Reactivation of already consolidated memory can initiate its destabilization, making the memory trace labile. Normally, this destabilization is followed by reconsolidation of the memory trace, enriched by newly acquired experience. Disrupting the reconsolidation process, for example, by inhibiting protein synthesis, impairs subsequent memory retrieval, leading to reminder-related amnesia.

We investigated whether retrograde amnesia for the stress-induced impairment of extinction retrieval shares similar characteristics with original acquisition memories. The first experiment demonstrated that cycloheximide administered shortly after a single restraint stress session alleviated the impairment of extinction retrieval but not when administered following a longer delay (i.e.

The study of the amnesia mechanisms is of both theoretical and practical importance. The mechanisms of anterograde amnesia are the least studied, due to the lack of an experimental model that allows studying this amnesia type molecular and cellular mechanisms. Previously, we found that conditional food aversion memory reconsolidation impairment in snails by NMDA glutamate receptor antagonists led to the amnesia induction, in the late stages of which (>10 days) repeated training did not cause long-term memory formation.

Background: Long-term memory formation is generally assumed to involve the permanent storage of recently acquired memories, making them relatively insensitive to disruption, a process referred to as memory consolidation. However, when retrieved under specific circumstances, consolidated fear memories are thought to return to a labile state, thereby opening a window for modification (e.g.

The peculiarities of implication of NMDA glutamate receptors and protein synthesis into the mechanisms responsible for impairment of memory reconsolidation were studied in edible snails conditioned to food aversion. Injections of NMDA glutamate receptor antagonists or protein synthesis inhibitor prior to reminding with conditioned food stimulus provoked development of amnesia after different latent periods. NMDA glutamate receptor antagonists gradually weakened the aversive reactions to conditioned stimulus presented in parallel with reminder during 1 h.
