TABLE 3A.
Effects of adenosinergic drugs on learning and memory in normal animals: CCPA (2-chloro-N6-cyclopentyladenosine), SCH 58261 ({7-(2-phenylethyl)-5-amino-2-(2-furyl)-pyrazolo-[4,3-e]-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5c]-pyrimidine}), ZM 241385 (4-(2-[7-amino-2-(2-furyl{1,2,4}-triazolo{2,3a}-{1,3,5}triazin-5-yl-amino]ethyl)phenol), 8-PT (8-phenyltheophylline); the full names of the other drugs are provided in Table 1. ↓ / ↑: impairs / enhances memory performance; ↔ no effect. * indicates that the direction of caffeine's effect on retention of inhibitory avoidance learning was dependent on whether the drug was administered before (leading to retention impairment) or after (leading to retention enhancement) the learning phase of the experiment.
