Ethanol sensitivity and consumption in F2 hybrid crosses of ANT and AT rats
1993
Abstract ANT rats that are highly sensitive to the motor-impairing effects of moderate ethanol doses voluntarily drink less ethanol in a free-choice test between 10% (v/v) ethanol solution and water than the ethanol-insensitive AT rats, suggesting the possibility that ethanol drinking is affected by initial ethanol sensitivity. However, in the F 2 hybrid crosses of ANT and AT rats, voluntary ethanol drinking did not correlate with sensitivity to the motor-impairing effects of ethanol in the tilting plane test. Therefore, initial ethanol sensitivity does not appear to be a major factor in explaining variation in voluntary ethanol drinking.
