Defensive burying in rodents: ethology, neurobiology and psychopharmacology.
Defensive burying refers to the typical rodent behavior of displacing bedding material with vigorous treading-like movements of their forepaws and shoveling movements of their heads directed towards a variety of noxious stimuli that pose a near and immediate threat, such as a wall-mounted electrified shock-prod. Since its introduction 25 years ago by Pinel and Treit [J. Comp. Physiol. Psychol. ...
متن کاملBehavioural responses to elevated plus-maze and defensive burying testing: effects on subsequent ethanol intake and effect of ethanol on retention of the burying response.
Based upon repeated observations of a relationship between defensive burying (DB), ethanol intake and stress ulcer susceptibility, and recurring questions regarding what DB behaviour reflects, two experiments were performed. Experiment 1 showed that prod shock exposure per se reduced subsequent ethanol intake, as did access to burying material. In rats without burying material in the conditioni...
متن کاملMaternal behavior modulates X-linked inheritance of behavioral coping in the defensive burying test.
BACKGROUND Complex behavioral traits such as coping strategies in response to stress are usually formed by genetic and environmental influences. METHODS By exploiting the phenotypic and genotypic differences between the Wistar Kyoto (WKY) and Fischer 344 (F344) inbred rat strains, we recently identified three X chromosome-linked quantitative trait loci contributing to differences in coping st...
متن کاملThe lateral septum as a regulator of hippocampal theta oscillations and defensive behavior in rats.
Hippocampal theta oscillations are linked to various processes, including locomotion, learning and memory, and defense and affect. The lateral septum (LS) has been implicated in the generation of the hippocampal theta rhythm, but its precise role in this process is not well understood. Here, we investigated the effects of direct pharmacological inhibition or disinhibition of the dorsal LS (dLS)...
