A putative animal model of anxiety based on shock-induced ultrasonic vocalization was pharmacologically validated in young adult rats. Suppression of shock-induced ultrasonic vocalization was obtained with diazepam, chlordiazepoxide, meprobamate and pentobarbital; the serotonin (5-HT)1A receptor agonists 8-OH-DPAT [8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin], buspirone, ipsapirone, gepirone and tandospirone; the nonselective 5-HT receptor agonists TFMPP [1-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazin], mCPP [1-(3-chlorophenyl)piperazin] and DOI (1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-aminopropane); the NMDA antagonists PCP (phencyclidine) and MK-801; the alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonists idazoxane, yohimbine and 1-PP (1-pyrimidinylpiperazine); and the atypical neuroleptic clozapine. The alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist clonidine, the 5-HT2/5-HT1C antagonist ritanserin, the 5-HT3 antagonists ondansetron and ICS-205,930, and the 5-HT reuptake inhibitor fluoxetine did not, or only partially, reduce ultrasonic vocalization. Tricyclic and tetracyclic, as well as some atypical antidepressants and a monoamineoxidase (MAO) inhibitor, showed no ultrasonic vocalization reducing effects, or reduced ultrasonic vocalization only at high doses. An opiate, an antimuscarinic, (pro)convulsants and typical neuroleptics did not reduce ultrasonic vocalization. The present findings suggest that the ultrasonic vocalization model specifically measures anxiolytic effects. Because ultrasonic vocalization responding develops within five days, remains stable for at least three months and gives highly reproducible results, the test appears suitable for rapid and repeated testing of new anxiolytics in the same animals.
