Blockade of the nootropic action of piracetam-like nootropics by adrenalectomy: an effect of dosage?
Behavioural Brain Research, 1989The present experiments demonstrate that the absence of any memory-improving action of nootropics in adrenalectomized animals cannot be ascribed to an effect of dosage. Doses of 1, 10, 100, 1000 and 3000 mg/kg p.o. of piracetam, oxiracetam, aniracetam or pramiracetam are ineffective in adrenalectomized mice.

[Cholinergic effects of nootropics].
Biomedica biochimica acta, 1989With respect to the enhancing effect of nootropics on learning and memory, the influence of some of these drugs on the high affinity choline uptake has been investigated. Meclofenoxate competes with choline uptake in vitro because of its similar side chain; other nootropics are without in vitro effects.
