Double dissociation of serotonergic and dopaminergic mechanisms on attentional performance using a rodent five-choice reaction time task.

abstract：RATIONALE:C-reactive protein (CRP), an acute phase protein that is released in response to inflammatory stimuli, is implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the role of CRP in memory deficits associated with AD remains unclear. OBJECTIVE:Experiments were carried out to determine whether CRP impaired memory and...
