Operant discrimination learning and operant bar-pressing rates in inbred and heterogeneous laboratory mice.
Mice from four inbred strains and a heterogeneous line were first reduced to 90% of their ad libitum body weight and were then trained to press a bar to obtain food pellets. After 9 days of training with a continuous schedule of reinforcement (CRF), mice were required to discriminate between conditions of reward and nonreward as indicated by a tone and a light; discrimination training continued...
متن کاملH-reflex operant conditioning in mice.
Rats, monkeys, and humans can alter the size of their spinal stretch reflex and its electrically induced analog, the H-reflex (HR), when exposed to an operant conditioning paradigm. Because this conditioning induces plasticity in the spinal cord, it offers a unique opportunity to identify the neuronal sites and mechanisms that underlie a well-defined change in a simple behavior. To facilitate t...
متن کاملTransplantable osteogenic sarcoma in inbred AKR mice.
Spontaneous transplantable osteogenic sarcoma in mice is rare. Heiple et al. (6) have described an osteogenic sarcoma in C3H/Hes mice, which was maintained by serial subcutaneous transfer for over 100 transplant generations. Craig et al. (2) reported an osteogenic sarcoma arising in an aduk SpragueDawley rat; the tumor was successfully transplanted into Holtzman rats, and it retained its bone-p...
متن کاملQuantitative genetics of sleep in inbred mice
The timing and the organization of sleep architecture are mainly controlled by the circadian system, while sleep need and intensity are regulated by a homeostatic process. How independent these two systems are in regulating sleep is not well understood. In contrast to the impressive progress in the molecular genetics of circadian rhythms, little is known about the molecular basis of sleep. Neve...
متن کاملTest in Inbred NZB/BL Mice
The. inbred NZB/BL mouse has been shown by Bielschowsky, Helyer, and Howie (1959) to develop auto-immune haemolytic anaemia spontaneously, and this disorder has been considered to be genetically determined (Holmes and Burnet, 1966). Burnet and Holmes (1962) described a characteristic thymic change in this 'auto-immune' strain of mice; and certain renal lesions have been noted (Holmes and Burnet...
