Developing a Behavioral Box for Assessing Prepulse Inhibition and Neural Activity in Psychiatric Animal Models

This protocol presents a microcontroller-based behavioral box to assess prepulse inhibition (PPI) by collecting acceleration data from a sensor beneath the box. This data evaluates sensory gating deficits in socially isolated rats, with an added method for synchronizing data with neuronal activity to advance neurophysiology studies on behavioral...

A Multiple Integrated Social Stress Model for Psychiatric Disorders in Female C57BL/6J Mice06:15

A Multiple Integrated Social Stress Model for Psychiatric Disorders in Female C57BL/6J Mice

By integrating four daily social stressors, the present study describes a multiple integrated social stress (MISS) model for psychiatric disorders in female C57BL/6J mice. After ten days of repeated MISS exposure, the mice developed depressive- and anxiety-like phenotypes, thus providing a natural, etiology-based animal model for studying psychiatric disorders in female...

The Mouse Stroke Unit Protocol with Standardized Neurological Scoring for Translational Mouse Stroke Studies

This article presents a protocol for executing the highly translational and independently proven mouse Stroke Unit (mSU) concept in large-stroke mice. It also provides a standardized protocol for executing the focal experimental stroke scale in mice, which evaluates stroke focal deficits detected even long-term.

Using a Murine Model of Psychosocial Stress in Pregnancy as a Translationally Relevant Paradigm for Psychiatric Disorders in Mothers and Infants

The chronic psychosocial stress (CGS) paradigm employs clinically relevant stressors during pregnancy in mice to model psychiatric disorders of mothers and infants. Here, we provide a step-by-step procedure of applying the CGS paradigm and downstream assessments to validate this...

Use of a Psychophysiological Script-driven Imagery Experiment to Study Trauma-related Dissociation in Borderline Personality Disorder

We present a protocol of personalized script-driven trauma-related imagery and clinical assessments within a comparison design for investigating peritraumatic dissociation (PD), psychophysiological reactions, i.e. heart rate (HR) and skin conductance (SC), and psychological features of often severely traumatized individuals with borderline personality disorder...
