Ethanol-induced sleeping time in mice: age and sex differences.
Ethanol-induced sleeping time was determined in mice of both sexes at ages ranging from 3 weeks to just over 1 year. A progressive increase in sleeping time was seen in both sexes up to 26 weeks of age; no subsequent changes were observed, except for a modest decrease in the oldest female group. In the majority of age groups, sleeping time values were higher in females, but few statistically significant sex differences were found.
