Effects of an acute administration of octadecylpropyl sulfamide (SUL3, 3 mg/kg; SUL10, 10 mg/kg), vehicle (VEH) and GW6471 (GW, 1 mg/kg) on the memory deficits induced by HI. (A) Discrimination index (DI) at 7 days post-HI in the novel object recognition test in VEH (n = 9 HI mice; n = 7 sham-operated), SUL3 (n = 7 HI mice; n = 8 sham-operated) and SUL10 (n = 6 HI mice; n = 7 sham-operated) treatments groups. A significant decrease in memory was observed in the HI group treated with VEH with respect to sham-operated mice (p < 0.001). This effect was completely reversed by SUL10 (p < 0.001) and partially by SUL3 (p < 0.05). (B) Discrimination index at 7 days post-HI in the novel object recognition test in VEH/VEH (n = 20 HI mice; n = 14 sham-operated), VEH/SUL10 (n = 16 HI mice; n = 13 sham-operated), GW/VEH (n = 12 HI mice; n = 12 sham-operated), and GW/SUL10 (n = 11 HI mice; n = 13 sham-operated) treatments groups. Significant memory deficits were observed in HI mice treated with VEH/VEH with respect to sham-operated mice (p < 0.001). This effect was reversed in the group treated with VEH/SUL10 (p < 0.001), and GW/VEH significantly blocked the beneficial effects of SUL10 (p < 0.001). The administration of GW/VEH did not significantly modify the DI in sham-operated or HI mice with respect to VEH/VEH treatment. Data are expressed as mean + SEM. Inline graphicp < 0.05, Inline graphicp < 0.001 vs. sham-operated mice of the same group; Inline graphicp < 0.05, Inline graphicp < 0.001 vs. VEH/VEH HI mice; ###p < 0.001 vs. VEH/SUL10 HI mice.
