There is increasing interest in the potential functional role of the octapeptide angiotensin II (AII) in psychiatric and cognitive disorders. The novel angiotensin II (AII) receptor antagonists, losartan and PD123177, selective for the AT1 and AT2 re

The elevated "zero-maze" is a modification of the elevated plus-maze model of anxiety in rats which incorporates both traditional and novel ethological measures in the analysis of drug effects. The novel design comprises an elevated annular platform

Several behaviors associated with the serotonin syndrome have been reported in rats following administration of the 5-HT1A receptor agonist 8-OH-DPAT. The present investigation approached this phenomenon from an ethopharmacological perspective, and p

The 5-HT3 receptor antagonist ondansetron has provided a somewhat equivocal profile in a number of animal models of anxiety. The present study assessed the effects of this compound in two ethological test batteries. The Fear/Defense Test Battery (F/D

In a Fear/Defense Test Battery, measuring defensive reactions to a present, approaching and contacting predator, the highest dose of morphine tested (7.5 mg/kg) reliably reduced vocalization to dorsal contact, to vibrissae stimulation, and to an anes

The effects of MDL 72832, a potent and stereoselective ligand for 5-HT1A sites, on basal nociception and non-opioid defeat analgesia in male mice were examined. Neither (+)- nor (−)-MDL 72832 significantly altered basal tail-flick latencies. In con

The behavioural specificity of the hyperphagic effects of 8-OH-DPAT is a controversial issue. The present study addressed this question through the introduction of behavioural competition. Feeding behaviour in male mice was assessed under both basal

The behavioural element, stretched attend posture (SAP), is an important component of the "risk-assessment" repertoire of defensive behaviour in rodents. The present experimental paradigm was devised as a novel and simple method of eliciting high lev

A single prior undrugged exposure to the elevated plus-maze has been reported to reduce open arm activity on retest and to attenuate/abolish the anxiolytic response to benzodiazepines at retest intervals ranging from 48 h to 14 days. The present stud
