“…These findings suggest that the pre-training acute administration of MOD promoted emotional memory deficits in an inverted-U shape fashion. Notwithstanding our findings are not in agreement with previous studies in rodents (Béracochéa et al, 2001(Béracochéa et al, , 2002(Béracochéa et al, , 2003(Béracochéa et al, , 2008Morgan et al, 2007;Piérard et al, 2006Piérard et al, , 2007Piérard et al, , 2011Tsanov et al, 2010;Ward et al, 2004), but they seem to be in line with other studies describing no effects (Waters et al, 2005) or even MOD-induced deleterious effects (Burgos et al, 2010;Shuman et al, 2009) on memory. In this way, Shuman et al (2009) have verified that pre-training 75 mg/kg MOD disrupted contextual-fear whereas it did not impair cued-fear conditioning or benefitted performance of mice in the Morris water maze.…”
