Assessment of memory and learning in animal models has been extensively employed in scientific research. Among many disorders,inthis article, we emphasise anoverall review of memory-related problems like those representing diseases with primary processes of affected memory –such as amnesia, dementia, brain ageing, neurodevelopment, trauma, epilepsy and neuropsychiatric disorders, etc. Toxic effects of specific drugs and other exploring are often responsible for these conditions. There is a diversification of experimental methods assessing animal learning and memory skills. We have many memories assessment models today to test memory along with maze in rodents; there are also other several types of them, but their real usefulness, advantages and applications stay to be completely settled and rely upon the specific variation chosenby the experimenter. The point of the current article is first, to momentarily audit the collected information concerning spatial memory tasks; second, to welcome the reader data on the various types of memory diseases in rodents; and third, to elucidate the usefulness and limitations of different available plant sources to treat memory and learning disorders.
