Do greater levels of in-cage waking inactivity in laboratory mice reflect a spontaneous depression-like symptom? A pharmacological investigation

We previously identified in laboratory mice an inactive state [being awake with eyes open motionless within the home cage; inactive but awake, ‘IBA’] sharing etiological factors and symptoms with human clinical depression. We further test the hypothesis that greater time spent displaying IBA indicat...
