Chronic nicotine ingestion improves radial arm maze performance in rats.

S. Poincheval-Fuhrman1, S.J. Sara.   

Abstract

Effects of chronic nicotine treatment on spatial memory were studied in rats. After 3 weeks of administration of 2.5mg/kg/day in drinking water, the rats were submitted to a spatial learning task in an eight-arm radial maze, during which time the treatment was maintained. Chronic nicotine treatment improved daily spatial memory performance after the animals reached an asymptotic level. Nicotine-treated animals showed significantly better performance than control animals regarding the first error and the total correct path choices.
