Stresscopin (SCP) and related peptides are new members of the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) peptide family that are selective ligands for CRF type 2 receptor; these ligands are essential for maintaining homeostasis after stress. SCP (i.p. injections) was tested on the passive avoidance learning task in stressed Wistar rats; it impaired the formation of memory trace. The retention performance deficit induced by SCP was comparable with the deficit induced by the stressor of restraint/cold. More profound impairment of avoidance response occurred following combined application of SCP and stressor. More specific actions of SCP can be expected from its studies with targeted intracerebral applications.
