Basal and poststress anxiety-like behavior in seven strains. A, Stressed DBA/2J spent less time, whereas C57BL/6J spent more time, out of the shelter than nonstressed controls in the light/dark exploration test. All strains except FVB/NJ and DBA/2J spent less time out of the shelter than C57BL/6J under nonstressed conditions. B, Stressed DBA/2J and FVB/NJ made fewer shelter exits, whereas C57BL/6J made more exits than nonstressed controls. Under nonstressed conditions, all strains except FVB/NJ made fewer shelter exits than C57BL/6J. C, Stressed C57BL/6J had a lower latency to exit shelter than nonstressed controls. Under nonstressed conditions, all strains except FVB/NJ and DBA/2J showed a longer latency to first exit the shelter than C57BL/6J. n = 7–10 per strain under stress. Data are expressed mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05 versus nonstressed/same strain; #p < 0.05 versus nonstressed C57BL/6J.
