Saline drinking and naloxone: Lightcycle dependent effects on social behaviour in male mice

Male mice (TO strain) were observed in the resident-intruder test and several behaviours monitored. Treatments were: isotonic saline drinking ad lib for 48 hours before testing (SAL), IP injections of 1 mg/kg naloxone 30 minutes before testing (NLX) or both treatments combined (NLX+SAL). The same se...

Zusammenfassung:Male mice (TO strain) were observed in the resident-intruder test and several behaviours monitored. Treatments were: isotonic saline drinking ad lib for 48 hours before testing (SAL), IP injections of 1 mg/kg naloxone 30 minutes before testing (NLX) or both treatments combined (NLX+SAL). The same sequence of tests were carried out both in the light and the dark phase of the 24-hour light cycle. The single treatments (SAL and NLX) both increased fighting (SAL, p
