lumicolchicine/amnesia

Colchicine (60 micrograms/kg), an inhibitor of axoplasmic transport, administered subcutaneously to mice had no detectable effect on retention when given shortly after active avoidance training, nor did a pretraining injection of anisomycin (ANI) have an amnesic effect. However, when ANI was

Colchicine, injected bilaterally into the forebrain of day-old chicks at times before and after one-trial avoidance learning, produced transient amnesia for one to three hours after learning, that could not be accounted for as a perceptual or attentional defect. The amnesia was dose dependent and
