[The characteristics of the startle reflex to an acoustic stimulus in rats with hereditary stress-sensitive arterial hypertension: the effect of chronic stress in the prepuberty period].

Abstract excerpt

Acoustic startle reflex was studied in young and adult rats with hereditary stress-induced arterial hypertension (HSIAH) in comparison with original normotensive Wistar strain. Immediate and long-lasting effects of chronic handling or chronic unpredictable stress at the age of 4 and 5 weeks on manifestations of the startle reflex were studied.
