IMPACT OF THE INTRANASAL APPLICATION OF GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID ON THE MEMORY PROCESSES OF RATS UNDER HYPOXIA CONDITIONS

Abstract

In the experiments on 22 adult male rats with a conditioned reflex of avoidance prepared in the shuttle chamber, it was found that a single application of gamma-amino butyric acid (3 mg/ml in a volume of 20 μl) at the nasal mucosa of rats was accompanied by deceleration of the extinction process of the conditioned reflex to 2–3 weeks compared with controls. The intranasal application of gamma-amino butyric acid before hypobaric hypoxia (5 min) contributed to the restoration of the natural pattern of extinction of the conditioned reflex, which was typical for the control animals.
Thus, the impact of classical inhibitory neurotransmitter on the vomeronasal organ in rats was characterized by the restructuring of the integrative activity of the brain and the improvement of learning and memory mechanisms that were vulnerable to reduced oxygen tension in the brain tissues.
