Abstract
The effects of intraventricular administration of ethylcholine aziridi nium ion (AF64A) were studied in male Wistar rats. Bilateral injection s of AF64A (3 nm/3mcl) reduced the reactions to biological alarm signa l and produced a decrease in the open-field activity 3 weeks after thi s lesion. The lesioned rats also displayed deficit in retention of a p assive avoidance task.
