In this study, we evaluated the effects of mouse interleukin-6 (IL-6) on the classical behavioural test of scopolamine-induced amnesia for a passive avoidance response in the mouse.Pretraining i.p. administration of this cytokine (0.125 and 0.5 microgram/mouse) significantly reduced the amnesic action of the muscarinic receptor antagonist.
