The purpose of this study was to examine the long-term behavioral effects of prenatal ethanol exposure in C57BL mice. Pregnant mice received free access to a liquid diet containing 25% ethanol-derived calories (EDC) from gestation days 6 to 18, Control animals were pair-fed an isocaloric 0% EDC diet

Spontaneous locomotor activity has been studied in mice treated with single or repeated doses (five daily injections) of chlordiazepoxide. The repeated administration enhanced the stimulatory action of the lower doses of the drug, while the depressant effect of the higher doses was reduced.
The behavioral effects of two highly selective al-pha2-adrenoceptor antagonists, atipamezole and idazoxan, were investigated in mice using the plusmaze test of anxiety and the holeboard test of directed exploration and locomotor activity. No anxiogenic effect, as assessed by the tendency to enter th
Separate groups of two different rat breeding lines, Roman High Avoidance (RHA/Verh.) and Roman Low Avoidance (RLA/Verh.), treated with either saline, nicotine (0.2 mg/kg), or amphetamine (0.4 mg/kg) were compared for exploratory efficiency and for exploratory locomotion by using two different mazes
