In the present study we show that the number of calls emitted by\nmouse pups can reflect maternal responsiveness. Maternal responsiveness towards pups was\nevaluated on postnatal day 8 using a three-compartment cage test where the mother, to\nreach the pups, had to cross the central part of the cage containing cues from a potentially\ninfanticidal male. Maternal responsiveness was lower when alien rather than own pups were\nused as stimulus. Moreover, the administration of morphine (2.5 mg/kg, i.p.) a drug known\nto disrupt maternal behavior, resulted in an increase of the latency to reach the pups, as\nwell. This behavioral and pharmacological validation supports the hypothesis that this measure\ncan represent an index of maternal motivation. Therefore, we evaluated maternal\nresponsiveness on day 8 postpartum and pups' ultrasound emission during isolation on day\n4 and 8 of life, under conditions strongly affecting the amount of maternal behavior\nreceived by pups. C57BL/6 mothers scored higher in maternal responsiveness than BALB/c\nfemales, and their pups emitted fewer calls than BALB/c pups both on days 4 and 8. Mothers\nof handled pups scored higher than controls in maternal responsiveness. Handled pups\nshowed a lower rate of calls on day 8, although they did not differ from controls on day 4.\nThese results support our hypothesis that maternal responsiveness, that is mother promptness\nto respond to pups' needs, is one of the factors tuning the rate of ultrasonic emission\nof the offspring." ; prodottidellaricerca:prodottoDi modulo:ID2839 , istituto:CDS061 ; pubblicazioni:autoreCNR unitaDiPersonaleInterno:MATRICOLA8413 , unitaDiPersonaleInterno:MATRICOLA4103 . @prefix parolechiave: . prodotto:ID37945 parolechiave:insiemeDiParoleChiave . ns11:ID304098 pubblicazioni:rivistaDi prodotto:ID37945 . parolechiave:insiemeDiParoleChiaveDi prodotto:ID37945 .
