    Notes: Abstract Two groups of rats were trained in a CER paradigm. The conditioned stimulus was a sound, the unconditioned stimulus was an electric shock. Group 1 received conventional CER training before the effects of different doses of diazepam were studied. For Group 2 the shock was always and exclusively given contingent on pretreatment with diazepam. After prolonged training the compound thus became a discriminative stimulus complex (DSC) and produced response suppression during the CS. Group 2 was also challenged with various doses of diazepam. The results showed that diazepam acquired diametrically different properties in the two groups. Group 1 exhibited disinhibitory effects and Group 2 suppressive effects, which may reflect anxiolytic and anxiogenic properties, respectively.

    Notes: Abstract Two groups of rats were given amphetamine intravenously at 5-min intervals (5 or 10 mg/kg/h) for 8h. Two control groups received saline infusions. On the second day a test dose of 10 mg/kg amphetamine was given to all groups. Body temperature, food intake, and motor behavior were registered every 30 or 60 min. The results showed the development of acute tolerance to the hyperthermic effect within 3–5 h. Tolerance was still visible on the 2nd day. There was also tolerance to the anorectic effect, which was evident on the 2nd day. One element of stereotyped behavior (swaying) also decreased during the amphetamine infusions.
