Anxiolytic-like profile in Wistar, but not Sprague-Dawley rats in the social interaction test.

Abstract:

RATIONALE:The social interaction test is a valuable behavioural model for testing anxiolytic drugs in rodents, quantifying the level of social behaviour between pairs of rats. OBJECTIVE:The aim of the present study was to assess the appropriateness of the social interaction test for use with a Sprague-Dawley rat line, because of increasing use of this strain in targeted mutagenesis research. METHODS:Sprague-Dawley and Wistar rats received either diazepam or mCPP or were exposed to different environmental conditions (lighting, social isolation prior testing, habituation, testing-time). General anxiety-related parameters measured were: duration of active social contact, frequency of active social contact, latency to first contact. Different forms of active social contact were recorded: number of crawls, follows and sniffs. Secondly, aversion-induced hippocampal serotonin release and serotonin content in brain regions were measured. RESULTS:In Wistar rats habituation to the test substantially increased the time of social contact, an effect comparable with treatment with diazepam (1 mg/kg), whereas changes in the lighting level had less impact. Latency to the first contact increased under "anxiety-reducing" conditions, the frequency of contacts did not change consistently. Sprague-Dawley rats behaviour did not change under varying environmental conditions, and treatment with diazepam had only sedating effects at higher doses (5 mg/kg). Anxiogenic doses of mCPP caused reduced social interaction in both strains. Serotonin release and serotonin content were higher in the anxious Wistar rats. CONCLUSIONS:Different rat strains as well as differing test conditions have a major impact on the outcome of this animal test for anxiety.
