Cerebellar dependent learning and memory. At 4-6 weeks of age, rabbits from control and endotoxin groups underwent eye-blink training for 5 consecutive days. A probe test was carried out on the sixth day. The cerebellar dependent learning was indicated by the percentage of conditioned responses. A. The schematic of eye-blink test. CS, conditioned stimulus; US, unconditioned stimulus; ISI, inter-stimulus interval. B. The percentage of conditioned responses in endotoxin kits was lower than controls over the 5-day training period. C. The percentage of conditioned responses in endotoxin kits was significantly lower than controls during the probe trial at day-6 (24 hours after the last training session). *p<0.05.
