The possibility of long-term changes in the innate characteristics of the behavior of mice of different genotypes (C57Bl/6 and BALB/c) after active immunization with dopamine-BSA conjugates was studied. These experiments revealed significant differences in the effects of anti-dopamine antibody on behavioral responses in an open field and neurotransmitter contents of brain structures in mice of different lines. Immunization with the dopamine-protein conjugate led to increases in the functional activity of the corresponding brain receptors, to different extents in mice of different lines.
