| Research Abstract |
It is known that the perirhinal cortex in the brain plays some important roles on the memory for objects. This study suggested that neurotrophin receptor(TrkB) would play some important roles on retention of the memory for objects in rats. However, injection of the neurotrophic factor 3 into the perirhinal cortex did not affect the memory for objects.
