Artificial selection for increased wheel-running behavior in house mice.
Replicated within-family selection for increased voluntary wheel running in outbred house mice (Mus domesticus; Hsd:ICR strain) was applied with four high-selected and four control lines (10 families/line). Mice were housed individually with access to activity wheels for a period of 6 days, and selection was based on the mean number of revolutions run on days 5 and 6. Prior to selection, herita...
متن کاملWheel running in the wild
The importance of exercise for health and neurogenesis is becoming increasingly clear. Wheel running is often used in the laboratory for triggering enhanced activity levels, despite the common objection that this behaviour is an artefact of captivity and merely signifies neurosis or stereotypy. If wheel running is indeed caused by captive housing, wild mice are not expected to use a running whe...
متن کاملMouse genetic differences in voluntary wheel running, adult hippocampal neurogenesis and learning on the multi-strain-adapted plus water maze.
Moderate levels of aerobic exercise broadly enhance cognition throughout the lifespan. One hypothesized contributing mechanism is increased adult hippocampal neurogenesis. Recently, we measured the effects of voluntary wheel running on adult hippocampal neurogenesis in 12 different mouse strains, and found increased neurogenesis in all strains, ranging from 2- to 5-fold depending on the strain....
متن کاملRat Running Wheel Behavior Reflects Inflammatory, Orofacial Pain
Received: January 26, 2017 Revised: May 17, 2017 Accepted: June 01, 2017 Abstract: Background: Our objective was to establish a novel, unbiased metric of inflammatory, orofacial pain. Method: Rats were placed individually into cages equipped with running wheels, and allowed an acclimation period of 17 days. Diurnal and nocturnal voluntary running behaviors were recorded. After day 17, rats were...
متن کاملAcute Restraint Stress Alters Wheel-running Behavior Immediately Following
27 In vertebrates, acute stressors, although short in duration, can influence physiology and behavior 28 over a longer time course, which might have important ramifications under natural conditions. In 29 laboratory rats, for example, acute stress has been shown to increase anxiogenic behaviors for days 30 after a stressor. In the present study, we quantified voluntary wheel-running behavior fo...
