The Effects of Repeated Ketamine Administration During Adolescence on Anxiety and Depressive-like Behaviors Induced by a Predator Odor
… sucrose preference test (SPT) and the elevated zero maze (EZM) in order to measure the presence of depressive and anxiety-like behaviors, respectively. There was a drug x odor interaction effect trending toward significance in the habitation phase of the SPT, indicating that the ketamine …

Biobehavioral responses to immune skew and free fatty acids
… in burrowing, social exploration, elevated zero maze and the open field test, without any depressive-like behavior (forced swim test (FST), saccharin preference) or cognitive dysfunction (novel object recognition, novel object location, Morris water maze). In Chapter 3, the second project …

Longitudinal Behavioral Assessment of Neonatal Traumatic Brain Injury
… open field activity (general activity levels), zero maze (anxiety), forced swim (depression), rotarod (coordination and balance), and water maze (general/spatial learning). jTBI mice showed elevated activity levels, impaired sensorimotor abilities, impaired spatial learning, and less efficient …

An Investigation of Anxiety- And Depression-Like Behavior after Head Trauma in Mice
… behavior was tested using the elevated zero maze (ZM), and the open field test (OF). Depression-related behavior was tested using the forced swim test (FST). Lastly, the effects that the TBI had on motor coordination was also tested using a rotarod. The mice were put through four trials …

The differential effects of short-term physical exercise, environmental enrichment and their combination, and short- and long-term environmental enrichment on behavior and associated molecular changes in the brain of C57BL/6 mice
… EE showed anxiolytic effects in the elevated zero maze, while these effects were lost after long-term EE. EE, irrespective of duration, increased microglia number within the dentate gyrus and had no significant effects on the expression of 43 hippocampal genes of interest. Long-term EE, …

Characterization of the Roman lines/strains of rats as a genetic model of psychiatric disorders: a behavioral and brain dialysis study
… of inbred RHA and RLA rats in the Elevated Zero Maze, and in motility cages used to asssess locomotor activity in a new environment. Results In study I we demonstrated that chronic treatments with low doses of antidepressants, that were ineffective when given subacutely, were able to …

Hypoxic immunomodulation results in increased disease risk and altered behavior via non-canonical pathways
… by measure of both the open-field and elevated zero maze tests following 3 weeks of HFD intake but remained comparable to LFD controls at 1 and 6 weeks of diet. These HFD-associated 3 week impairments correlated with the suppression of glutathione (GSH):glutathione disulfide (GSSG) increase in …
