Abstract:Animal models utilizing predator odor stress are important in understanding implications for post‐traumatic stress disorder. 2,5‐dihydro‐2,4,5‐trimethylthiazoline (TMT) has been used to measure stress reactive behaviors during TMT exposure, indicative of stress coping behaviors. In addition, long‐term consequences of stress including contextual‐induced stress memory, anxiety‐like and hyperarousal behaviors, and subsequent increases in alcohol self‐administration can also be examined after TMT exposure.
