Effect of body temperature reduction on response acquisition in mice

Walter B. Essman 1 and Frederick N. Sudak 1

1 Department of Physiology, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York City

In four experiments designed to determine the effects of a moderate reduction of body temperature on response acquisition mice were treated with either 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid or saline in combination with cold exposure. In a four-trial water-escape problem, normothermic animals acquired the response but hypothermic mice did not show learning. A temperature-dependent relationship to learning was demonstrated.
