    Summary
    PLG resulted in dose-dependent attenuation of retrograde amnesia.
    2 context sentences
    Summary · context
    The antiamnesic effects of prolyl-leucyl-glycinamide (PLG) and analogues of this tripeptide were investigated in rats.
    Summary · context
    Retrograde amnesia was induced by electroconvulsive shock treatment and the degree of amnesia was characterized by the attenuation of one-trial learning passive avoidance response.
  2. 02AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In rats, PLG was less effective against amnesia than some tripeptides containing D-pipecolic acid instead of N-terminal proline.

    In plain wordsIn rats, PLG reduced amnesia less than some tripeptides that replaced its starting proline with D-pipecolic acid.
