Background: Magnesium (Mg) and zinc (Zn) are two essential elemnts for normal performance of central nervous system. So that the learning and memory are influenced by these ions that antagonized NMDA (N methyl-D-aspartate) receptor. Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of nanoparticles of zinc oxide (ZnO) and magnesium oxide (MgO) on passive avoidance memory in mice.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
