Abstract
Post-training administration of corticosterone (0.1–1 mg/kg) dose-dependently improves retention of an inhibitory avoidance response in C57BL/6 mice, whilst impairing it in the DBA/2 strain. The effects on retention performance induced by the hormone in C57BL/6 and DBA/2 mice appear to be due to an effect on memory consolidation. In fact, they were observed when the drug was given at short, but not long, periods of time after training, ie, when the memory trace is susceptible to modulation.
