ABSTRACT
Objective The study was to evaluate the behavioral differences in learning and memory abilities among three ani -mal models of Alzheimer′s disease. Methods Three SD rat models(n=20) were used in this study.The first SD rat model was es-tablished by intracerebral injection of Aβ25-35 into the bilateral hippocampus , the second mouse model was induced by intraperitoneal in-jection of scopolamine and the third was a senescence accelerated mouse model .Morris Water maze test was performed to investigate behavioral differences by comparison to corresponding blank control groups ( sham operation group , blank group and P8 group ) . Results The learning and memory abilities of senescence accelerated rats and scopolamine -treated rats were worse than those of the corresponding control groups, especially the scopolamine-treated rat ([35.47 ±3.78]s vs [50.61 ±3.94]s, P0.05). Conclusion The model of Alzheimer′s disease in-duced by intraperitoneal injection of scopolamine represents more distinct changes in learning and memory abilities .Morris water maze test can be used to well evaluate whether the scopolamine-induced model is successfully established or not .
