Evaluation of anxiolytic effect and withdrawal anxiety in chronic intermittent diazepam treatment in rats.

abstract：:Although the role of genetic factors in the response to drugs of abuse has been emphasized, no earlier studies have applied selective breeding to intravenous drug self-administration. Here we report the effects of six generations of selective breeding for rat lines with low or high levels of intravenous drug self-admi...
