The GABA Antagonist Picrotoxin Attenuates an Ethanol-Induced Taste Aversion in Taste Aversion-Prone Rats
The aversive properties of alcohol can be examined by using ethanol as a conditioning agent in a taste aversion (TA) paradigm. However, there is often variability in how organisms respond to the aversive properties of alcohol. Using a selectively bred line of TA-prone (TAP) rats, the present study sought to determine if antagonizing the GABA receptor complex with picrotoxin could block the acqu...
متن کاملTaste aversion learning and schedule-induced polydipsia in rats
Experiment 1 sought to determine whether schedule-induced drinking could be abolished by means of a taste aversion. Polydipsic rats were given access to a .4% saccharin solution while they were exposed to an intermittent food schedule. Immediately after the session, they received an intraperitoneal injection of either lithium chloride or sodium chloride. Following a recovery day with water in t...
متن کاملMagnetic field conditioned taste aversion in rats.
Conditioned taste aversion is a common classic conditioning procedure used to identify noxious stimuli. When a rat is given a taste solution, the conditioned stimulus (CS), followed by an unpleasant experience, the unconditioned stimulus (US), the rat will avoid consumption of the CS in future presentations. These experiments use the taste aversion procedure to examine the effect of exposure to...
متن کاملConditioned Taste Aversion Learning in Adolescent and Adult Rats
Pharmacology and Cancer Biology at the Duke University Medical Center in Durham, NC. In 2004, Dr. Schramm-Sapyta and her colleagues at Vanderbilt assessed the rewarding effects of cocaine in adolescent and adult rats and noted no distinct differences in the acquisition of cocaine-induced place preferences between the two groups. Given her focus on the balance of the rewarding and aversive effec...
متن کاملInferior olive lesions impair concurrent taste aversion learning in rats.
Taste aversion learning can be established according to two different procedures, concurrent and sequential. For the concurrent task, two different taste stimuli are offered at the same time, one associated with simultaneous intragastric administration of an aversive stimulus and the other associated with physiological saline. This discrimination is learned by sham-lesioned control animals and ...
