Figure 3. The marble-burying assay as a screen for acute oxytocin agonist effects.

Figure 3.

Compounds were administered 50 min before the test. C57BL/6J (B6) or BALB/cByJ (BALB) mice were given one test per week, with up to 4 tests per subject. Separate sets of BALB mice were used for oxytocin and TC-OT-39. A) Data from male and female B6 mice were combined for analysis, since overall ANOVAs at each dose did not indicate significant effects of sex. Data are means (+SEM) from 8-16 mice per group. *p<0.05.
