One of the most commonly used behavioral endpoints measured in preclinical studies using rodent models is thigmotaxis (or “wall-hugging”). Thigmotaxis is a well-validated index of anxiety in animals and humans. While assays measuring thigmotaxis in adult zebrafish have been developed, a thigmotaxis assay has not yet been validated in larval zebrafish. Here we present a novel assay for measurement...
Natural variations in maternal care in the rat influence the development of neuronal systems that regulate endocrine and behavioral responses to stress. Thus, as adults, rats that received higher levels of maternal licking/grooming (LG) in infancy are less ‘fearful’ in response to novelty, compared with adult offspring of Low LG mothers. The present study examined the influence of maternal care on...
