| 1 | Melatonin alone, when injected to shamoperated animals 30 min before behavioral experiment, did not affect the passive avoidance response in SA- or OT-treated rats, but blocked the VP-induced lengthening of the passive avoidance latency in the first retention trial. | Melatonin | arginine vasopressin | Rattus norvegicus |
| 2 | We conclude that: a) VP needs a regulated pineal function for developing short-term effects on the passive avoidance response and b) the effect of OT on the avoidance latency in pinealectomized rats develops after melatonin treatment as a long-term effect. | Melatonin | arginine vasopressin | Rattus norvegicus |
