The following drugs and dosage were used: carbachol HCl (Sigma) 2 mg/kg; atropine sulfate (Sigma) 2.5 mg/kg; scopolamine HBr (Sigma) 2 mg/kg; epinephrine bitartrate (Sigma) 1 mg/kg; amphetamine bitartrate 5 mg/kg; lidocaine HCl (Sigma) 40 mg/kg; acetyl salycilic acid,100 mg/kg; morphine HCL, 10 mg/kg; haloperidol (Syntex latino, SA) 1 and 6 mg/kg. Each drug was dissolved in isotonic saline solution (0.9% NaCl) just before use, and the resulting solution was administered by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of 0.2 mL. The hydroalcoholic extract of the bark was administered intraperitoneally at the dose of 0.5 g dried plant/kg weight, and dichloromethane extract at 1.25 g dried plant/kg weight.

[3H](+)PHNO (specific activity 63–64 Ci/mmol) was purchased from Moravek Biochemical Inc. (Brea, CA, USA).
Apomorphine HCl, butaclamol HCl, D-amphetamine sulphate, forskolin (FSK), phencyclidine, phentolamine, scopolamine HBr, (±)-2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodoamphetamine HCI, serotonin-creatinin sulphate, and isobutyl-methyl xanthine were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich Co. (St Louis, MO, USA).
Mianserin HCl was obtained from Organon, methysergide maleate from Sandoz, and MK-801 from RBI. Haloperidol, cariprazine, DDCAR (as base or HCl salt), and DCAR (as base or HCl salt) were synthesized at Gedeon Richter Plc (Budapest, Hungary).

Rodent Cognitive Enhancement Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Each compound was freshly dissolved on every experimental day. Donepezil (1 mg/kg; generously given by Solvay Pharmaceuticals, Weesp, The Netherlands) was dissolved in saline and administered p.o., the injection volume was 1 mL/kg. Vardenafil (1 mg/kg; kindly donated by BAYER AG, Wuppertal, Germany) was dissolved in a vehicle containing 98% tylose (methyl-cellulose) solution (1%) and 2% tween 80, and was given orally (p.o.) at an injection volume of 1 mL/kg. The same vehicle was used for dissolving rolipram, which was given i.p. (1 mL/kg). For rolipram (Sigma-Aldrich, Zwijndrecht, the Netherlands), a dose of 0.03 mg/kg was used in the 24-h retention interval sessions and 0.1 mg/kg in the 1-h retention sessions in combination with scopolamine. A fixed dose of 0.1 mg/kg scopolamine Hbr (Sigma-Aldrich) was used as an acquisition-deficit model, and was also dissolved in saline. Scopolamine was administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) at a volume of 1 mL/kg. Doses, vehicles, and administration routes were determined based on earlier studies using these drugs (Prickaerts et al. 2005 (link); Rutten et al. 2006 (link), 2007 (link)).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
