Responses to cold, heat, and pain increase locomotion in rats and are attenuated by pinealectomy.

Abstract:

:The effects of pinealectomy on locomotor behavior responses to cold, heat or pain were assessed in freely moving rats. External cold (4 degrees C) or heat (36 degrees C) stress produced increases of locomotion (including horizontal and vertical movement, and total distance traveled), increases of number of turnings (including both clockwise and counterclockwise), and decreases of postural freezing in rats. In addition, pain (produced by intradermal injection of normal saline) was also shown to produce increases of locomotion (including horizontal and vertical movement, and total distance traveled) and decreases of postural freezing in rats. The increases of locomotion (including horizontal and vertical movement, and total distance traveled), as well as the decreases of postural freezing induced by either cold or pain, were attenuated by pretreatment of animals with pinealectomy. The heat-induced increases of vertical movement as well as the decreases of postural freezing were also attenuated by pinealectomy. The results indicate that these nonphotic, stress-provoking stimuli act through the pineal gland to induce escape behaviors to try to get out of the stressed conditions in rats.
