It was found that the Flinders Sensitive Line (FSL) of rat, selectively bred for increased cholinergic function, performed poorly in a tone-cued two-way active avoidance task in comparison with the control Flinders Restraint Line (FRL) of rat. These findings are consistent with the suggestion that the FSL rats may be a genetic animal model of depression.
