Presurgical handling and exploratory behavior of rats with septal lesions
Behavioral effects of septal lesions are altered by presurgical history of the experimental animal. We examined the interactions between presurgical handling of young adult rats and subsequent septal lesions on postsurgical exploratory behavior in an open field . Sixty·day·old male rats were either handled twice daily for 20 days prior to surgery or left undisturbed during this period. All rats...
متن کاملLocus coeruleus lesions and avoidance behavior in rats.
Bilateral electrolytic lesions of the locus coeruleus were performed in rats. In comparison with controls, lesioned rats showed decreased acquisition of two-way avoidance response, less intertrial responses, longer latency of avoidance responses on the first day of training, and needed more trials to reach the extinction criterion. It is suggested that locus coeruleus, contrary to the ventral n...

متن کاملSocial Transmission of Avoidance Behavior under Situational Change in Learned and Unlearned Rats
BACKGROUND Rats receive information from other conspecifics by observation or other types of social interaction. Such social interaction may contribute to the effective adaptation to changes of environment such as situational switching. Learning to avoid dangerous places or objects rapidly occurs with even a single conditioning session, and the conditioned memory tends to be sustained over long...
متن کاملRecovery of emotional behavior after lesions of the septal area.
Temporary decortication induced by acute cerebral ischemia or insulin coma reinstated the initial syndrome of emotional hyperreactivity in rats fully recovered from septal forebrain lesions. The effect was virtually the same as observed earlier with the use of spreading cortical depression. Surprisingly it was found that insulin coma induced during the acute phase of the septal syndrome but not...
