title: [Effect of GDNF on the behavior of ASC mice with high hereditary predisposition to catalepsy].
abstract: ASC mice, which were selected for high predisposition to catalepsy, are convenient genetic model for research of central mechanisms related to disorder of motor regulation. The aim of the work was to study the effect of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) on catalepsy, locomotor activity, stereotyping behavior in the marble burying test and on the dopamine level in striatum of ASC mice. It was shown that GDNF increased the locomotor activity in the open field, reduced catalepsy expression and stimulated the stereotyping obsessive-compulsive behavior. These changes in behavior were accompanied by increasing dopamine level in striatum.
