Nicotine Sensitization in β-Arrestin 2 Knockout Adolescent Mice.
… study, 3-4 week old BA-2 KO and wild type C57/B6 mice received nicotine tartarate (s.c, 0.5 mg/kg free base) for 7 or 14 consecutive days followed by a drug-free period. An acute nicotine challenge followed the drugfree period. Results indicated that the absence of ß-arrestin-2 reduced …

The development and plasticity of visuo-spatial orienting behaviors and underlying circuitry in adolescent mice
… exists for standard laboratory strains of mice, a prominent model for understanding the neural basis of behavior in mammals. To fill this critical hole in our understanding, we quantitatively compared both insect predation behaviors and visual motion-induced orienting between adolescents …

Strain-dependent and age-dependent effects of acute, chronic, and withdrawal from chronic nicotine on fear conditioning.
… on fear conditioning in 8 strains of inbred mice. Furthermore, nicotine withdrawal-related changes in somatic signs and the elevated plus maze were examined because nicotine withdrawal consists of multiple symptoms that can include increased somatic signs and increased anxiety. …

EARLY ADOLESCENT NICOTINE EXPOSURE HAS LONG-LASTING EFFECTS ON COCAINE-INDUCED BEHAVIORS IN MICE
… is one of the most commonly used drugs among adolescent populations. Given the fact that adolescence is a unique developmental stage, during which nicotine has long-term effects on future drug-taking behavior, it is essential to understand how early exposure to nicotine during adolescence may …

Chronic Stress during Adolescence Alters Alcohol-Induced Conditioned Place Preference in Mice Selectively Bred for High Alcohol Preference but no Low Alcohol Preference
… consequences than exposure during adulthood. Adolescent chronic stress exposure has long-lasting effects on physiology and behavior, including an increased risk of developing an alcohol use disorder (AUD) later in life. This relationship is particularly true in individuals with a familial …

The Effect of Maternal Separation and Postnatal Oxytocin Administration on Social Recognition in Adolescent Female Mice
… or the acquisition of social odor preferences in adolescent control and maternally separated female mice (Experiment 2). The results of Experiment 1 showed that, in contrast to control subjects, maternally separated females showed diminished habituation to repeated presentations of a familiar …

ONTOGENY AND NEURAL MECHANISMS OF VOCAL COMMUNICATION IN MUS MUSCULUS
… ontogeny of vocal communication in laboratory mice (Mus musculus) provides a tractable opportunity to begin to understand the behavioral and neural mechanisms that underlie this transition in vocal communication. A wide range of transgenic tools are available in mice, offering a unique …
