The oxidative stress may play a major role on the aging process and associated cognitive decline, therefore antioxidant treatment may alleviate age-related impairment in spatial memory. Cognitive impairment could also involve the age-related morphological alterations of hippocampal formation. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the effects of deprenyl, an irreversible monoamine-oxidase B inhibitor, on spatial memory by oxidant stress and total number of neurons in the hippocampus CA1 region of aged male rats. In this study 24 months old male rats were used. Rats were divided into control and deprenyl groups and injected for 21 days. Learning experiments were performed for six days in the Morris water maze. Spatial learning was significantly better in deprenyl-treated rats compared to saline-treated rats. Deprenyl treatment elicited a significant decrease of lipid peroxidation in prefrontal cortex, striatum and hippocampus regions and a significant increase of glutathione peroxidase activity in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus. It was observed that deprenyl had no effect on the superoxide dismutase activity. The total neuron numbers in the hippocampus CA1 region were significantly higher in the deprenyl group than in the control group. In conclusion, we demonstrated that deprenyl increases spatial memory performance in aged male rats and this increase may be related to suppression of lipid peroxidation and alleviation of age-related decrease of the number of neurons in the hippocampus. The results of such studies may be useful in pharmacological modification of aging process.

Next time I have a friendly chat with an aged male rat I'll pass the information along! :)

"Ahhhh Dirty Rat"..
My brother was a "rat" and I still don't have a friendly thing to say to him! "Dirty Rat Ahhhhhhh"..........
Of course again, I never experimented with him for six days in the Morris water maze treatment to see if it elicited a significant decrease of lipid peroxidation in prefrontal cortex, striatum and hippocampus regions and a significant increase of glutathione peroxidase activity in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus, SO I could be wrong now!...
Kind of wish I had now that I know that this increased spatial memory performance may be related to suppression of lipid peroxidation and alleviation of age-related decrease of the number of neurons in the hippocampus especially since such studies may be useful in pharmacological modification.
Now I did "cannonball" him once at a swimming pool but I guess that doesn't count does it:)
Looking back, if I had only known!!!
Of course then again if the rats were friendly, there wouldn't have been as many great gangster movies now would there???

marika - 12 Jun 2005 04:43 GMT > So Jesus Was A Vegetarian, but his sandals > were made from leather-go figure!!! well when the big one hits...we will see who remains a vegetarian and who becomes a raw meat eating flesh eater
and whose constitutions will survive because they made good friends with the bacteriums needed for all of us to coexist
when we can communicate with animals and the animals can communicate back, we will have all the info we need to settle the debate

I can remember (sometimes) doing cannabinols in a pool myself. (Myself? I was with other people too.) I can dig what you're saying. Not only couldn't I count, I had hard enough time just keeping them lit & out of the water. You float good when your lungs are full, but you need your arms to tread water when you exhale, or start laughing or if Tammi-Lu is there. But that was a long time ago. When I was young & foolish. I think it was June or August of last year.

G.Ross - 26 May 2005 14:32 GMT Right Click original post (tom's), Click Properties , then details, and you see the *5 newsgroups he posted to, and which you and Owlvee Replied onto (I put content there below). Rather than send replies (like this) to unique newsgroups, phishers will often crosspost onto 5 groups, so you might reply onto sites you didn't intend to. The 3 posts later on this thread. on alt.ep, are someone replying to him or you on one of **those groups**, that's why they're not 'familiar' to regulars on alt.ep group.
*I removed other 4 groups here (highlight, then hit Delete key as you compose message). Put them back and I'll stop posting this thread. Same old same old. My seizures do not happen in the same part as the poor rat, and I haven't seen *1 person post here since Sept 97 who had seizures from that area of the brain the article refers to. There *could be among the lurkers, but so long as 'some people' Crosspost to multip. unrelated groups like these, we'll never know, I guess.... G./
Headers of post you replied to with above subject line (see how many Newsgroups post was put onto). *I removed those at top here, but you didn't on your post. That other fellow isn't subscribed on alt.ep-- he's posting from one of the Other 4 Phisher sites in headers. Maybe he's a Nurse!!-->

Thanks anyway! I figured they all deserved to get an answer since they all probably have aged male rats. I just should have went to another group and answered from there maybe..

WHY would I crosspost TO groups .. it . didn't .. BELONG .. in ..?
Deprenyl is an antiseizure .. drug ..
It is ALSO .. a 'cognition' .. drug ..
The BOTTOMLINE .. is .. it DECREASES .. oxidation ..
