Background: A rat line developed by selective breeding for high alcohol sensitivity has blunted corticosterone responses to alcohol and stress. In the present study, we determined possible differences in adrenal activation after alcohol and motor performance testing between the alcohol-sensitive alcohol-nontolerant and alcohol-insensitive alcohol-tolerant rats.
Methods: The animals received ethanol (2 g/kg, intraperitoneally), and 30 min later they were subjected to a motor function test (i.
