[Cyclic nucleotide levels in the brain of inbred mice in emotional stress exposure].

The content of cAMP and cGMP in different brain regions was studied in C57Bl/6 and BALB/c mice at rest and upon exposure to emotional stress induced by open field technique. Interstrain differences in baseline nucleotide content, differences in nucleotide distribution in the brain regions and changes in their concentration after stress have been revealed.
