Acquisition and extinction of conditioned taste aversion (CTA) induced by 1.25 g/kg IP ethanol (15% v/v) in adult female in-fostered and cross-fostered Fischer and Lewis rats pretreated with vehicle or 1 mg/kg nor-BNI. There were no effects of nor-BNI pretreatment, so each data point represents the collapsed mean ± SEM within each rearing group. The Acquisition data depict ml of saccharin consumed per 100 g of body weight (one-bottle tests), whereas the Extinction data depict relative saccharin preference (saccharin as a % of total fluid consumed per two-bottle tests). F/F = Fischer rats raised by Fischer dams (n = 16), F/L = Fischer rats raised by Lewis dams (n = 13), L/L = Lewis rats raised by Lewis dams (n = 9), and L/F = Lewis rats raised by Fischer dams (n = 10). The cross-fostered Lewis animals (L/F) generally displayed stronger avoidance responses than all other groups. Significant difference between L/L vs. F/F and F/L (x), L/F vs. F/F (†), L/F vs. F/L (*) or L/F vs. L/L (#).
