Effects of nicotine on active avoidance learning in rats: sex differences.

abstract：:We have observed that, after myocardial infarction (MI), rats display apoptosis in the limbic system that can be prevented by pentoxifylline (PTX), a proinflammatory cytokine inhibitor. We have hypothesized that reduction of apoptosis in the limbic system can attenuate the depressive behaviour occurring post-MI. The p...
