Ribonucleic acid: effect on conditioned behavior in rats
Abstract:
Acquisition of a behavioral response motivated by shock was enhanced in rats chronically treated with yeast ribonucleic acid, and resistance to extinction was greater in rats so treated than in controls. This extends the role of ribonucleic acid to include a behavioral effect in laboratory mammals treated with a purified preparation from yeast.
