What's wrong with my mouse model? Advances and strategies in animal modeling of anxiety and depressionA V Kalueff
Laboratory of Clinical Science, National Institute of Mental Health, Bethesda, MD 20892 1264, USA
Behav Brain Res 179:1-18. 2007..Noting a deficit of fresh ideas and especially new paradigms for animal anxiety and depression models, we review existing challenges and outline important directions for further research in this field...
Increased grooming behavior in mice lacking vitamin D receptorsA V Kalueff
Department of Anatomy, Medical School, Tampere University, 33014, Finland
Physiol Behav 82:405-9. 2004..In general, our results confirm the role of vitamin D and VDR in the regulation of behavior, including grooming, and suggest that increased grooming behavioral phenotype may be associated with genetic ablation of VDR in mutant mice...
The role of hair in swimming of laboratory mice: implications for behavioural studies in animals with abnormal hairA V Kalueff
Department of Anatomy, Medical School, University of Tampere, Tampere 33014, Finland
Lab Anim 39:370-6. 2005..Our results indicate that hair condition is not an important factor in the forced swim test for this mouse strain, and suggest that this test may have wider utility for behavioural analyses of mice with abnormal hair...
Hair barbering in mice: implications for neurobehavioural researchA V Kalueff
Department of Anatomy of the Medical School, University of Tampere, Tampere 33014, Finland
Behav Processes 71:8-15. 2006..We suggest that barbering may be an important complex multi-domain behaviour sensitive to various manipulations, and represent a useful index in neurobehavioural research...
The vitamin D neuroendocrine system as a target for novel neurotropic drugsA V Kalueff
Department of Anatomy, Medical School, University of Tampere, Tampere, Finland
CNS Neurol Disord Drug Targets 5:363-71. 2006..Here we review the important role of the vitamin D neuroendocrine system in the brain, and outline perspectives for the search for novel neurotropic drugs to treat various vitamin D-related dysfunctions...
Hypolocomotion, anxiety and serotonin syndrome-like behavior contribute to the complex phenotype of serotonin transporter knockout miceA V Kalueff
Laboratory of Clinical Science, Intramural Research Program, National Institute of Mental Health NIMH, Bethesda, MD, USA
Genes Brain Behav 6:389-400. 2007..An understanding of the emerging complexity of SERT -/- mouse behavior is crucial for a detailed dissection of their phenotype and for developing further neurobehavioral models using these mice...
Pharmacological modulation of anxiety-related behaviors in the murine Suok testA V Kalueff
Department of Anatomy, Medical School, University of Tampere, Tampere, Finland
Brain Res Bull 74:45-50. 2007..Overall, the results of this study confirm the potential utility of both murine Suok tests, especially when used in selected "sensitive" mouse strains, for high-throughput screening of potential anxiotropic drugs...
Mechanisms of neuroprotective action of vitamin D(3)A V Kalueff
Center of Physiology and Biochemical Research, Kiev 01042, Ukraine
Biochemistry (Mosc) 69:738-41. 2004....
