Pentoxifylline (PTX) has an inhibitory effect on inflammatory cytokines; therefore, we aimed to evaluate the effect of PTX on passive avoidance learning and the expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-¦Á) and caspase-3 in the rat hippocampus, following systemic lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injection %K Hippocampus %K inflammation %K learning and memory %K lipopolysaccharide %K pentoxifylline %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6621342/
