Restraint stress, electrical stimulation of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST), and the combination of restraint stress and BNST stimulation were studied using a computerized animal activity monitoring system. Both restraint and the combination of restraint and BNST stimulation produced increases in locomotor, exploratory and stereotypic activity all of which returned to baseline within an hour while BNST stimulation alone also increased measurements of locomotor and exploratory behavior some of which remained elevated throughout the three-hour period of measurement. BNST stimulation also produced vigorous escape behavior and biting which were not seen with restraint alone. Thus electrical stimulation of BNST produces behavior which is qualitatively similar to the behavior produced by stress but differs in time course.
