A new inbred strain of Fawn-Hooded rats demonstrates mania-like behavioural and monoaminergic abnormalities
The Fawn-Hooded (FH) rat carries a gene mutation that results in a dysfunctional serotoninergic system.However, previous studies have reported differing features between the FH/Wjd and FH/Har strains.We aimed to compare the behavioural and neurobiological features of FH/HamSlc rats with those of Fischer 344 rats.We performed the open field, elevate
