“…However, in contrast to stimulants and opioids, to which adult female rodents are hyper-sensitive (e.g., [6,58,88]), the data pertaining to sex differences in alcohol-induced changes in loco-motor hyperactivity are mixed and vary as a function of species and strain (e.g., [32,53,60,75,76,94]; c.f., [19]). This being said, females tend not to differ from males with respect to behavioral measures of ethanol motor-incoordination and/or intoxication and while the severity of ethanol-induced intoxication varies considerably with strain in mice, the absence of malefemale differences in intoxication is consistent across different mouse strains (e.g., [9,10,24,25,59,75,76,103]).…”
