Behavioral profiles displayed by rats in an elevated asymmetric plus-maze: effects of diazepam.
When rats are exposed to unknown environments where novelty and fear-inducing characteristics are present (conflictive environments), some specific behaviors are induced and exploration is apparently modulated by fear. In our laboratory, a new type of plus-maze was designed as a model of conflictive exploration. The maze is composed of four arms with different geometrical characteristics, diffe...
متن کاملAn Assessment of Changes in Open-Field and Elevated Plus-Maze Behavior Following Heat Stress in Rats
This paper presents the effect of high environmental heat on behavior of the male Charles Foster rats. Eighty rats were divided into three groups, subjected to (i) acute heat stress (ii) chronic heat stress and (iii) handling control group. Animals were exposed to the hot environment in a biological oxygen demand incubator at 38 ± 1ºC (relative humidity 45-50%) for four hours of continuous sing...

conclusions acute and chronic administration of ellagic acid had anxiolytic property. also, the most effective dose of ellagic acid was 30 mg/kg. pretreatment with flumazenil reversed the beneficial effect of ellagic acid and diazepam on anxiety. it is likely that the anxiolytic effect of ellagic acid is largely mediated by activation of gabaa receptor. results acute and chronic application of ...
