Abstract excerpt

The locomotor behavior of unstressed and stressed mice of two inbred strains, DBA/2 and C57/BL6, was investigated. Animals were tested in a toggle-floor box apparatus, 30 min after saline or oxotremorine treatment (ip). A dose of oxotremorine that did not depress the activity of naïve mice (0.01...
