The mouse forced swim test.
Adem Can,David T. Dao,Michal Arad,Chantelle E. Terrillion,Sean C. Piantadosi,Todd D. Gould,Todd D. Gould +6 more
TL;DR: This work explains how to conduct the mouse version of this test with emphasis on potential pitfalls that may be detrimental to interpretation of results and how to avoid them and explains how the behaviors manifested in the test are assessed.

The tail suspension test.
Adem Can,David T. Dao,David T. Dao,Chantelle E. Terrillion,Sean C. Piantadosi,Shambhu Bhat,Todd D. Gould,Todd D. Gould +7 more
TL;DR: The details required for implementation of this test are described and a solution to the tail climbing behavior, a common problem that renders this test useless in some mouse strains, such as the widely used C57BL/6.

Thomas B. Cook,Lisa A. Brenner,C. Robert Cloninger,Patricia Langenberg,Ajirioghene Igbide,Ina Giegling,Annette M. Hartmann,Bettina Konte,Marion Friedl,Lena Brundin,Maureen Groer,Adem Can,Dan Rujescu,Teodor T. Postolache +13 more
TL;DR: Aggression and impulsivity, personality traits considered as endophenotypes for SSDV, are associated with latent T. gondii infection in a gender and age-specific manner, and could be further investigated as prognostic and treatment targets in T. Gondii-positive individuals at risk of suicidal self-directed violence.

Effects of Ketamine and Ketamine Metabolites on Evoked Striatal Dopamine Release, Dopamine Receptors, and Monoamine Transporters
Adem Can,Panos Zanos,Ruin Moaddel,Hye Jin Kang,Katinia S. S. Dossou,Irving W. Wainer,Joseph F. Cheer,Douglas O. Frost,Xi Ping Huang,Todd D. Gould +9 more
TL;DR: Neither ketamine’s enantiomers nor its metabolites had affinity for DA receptors or the DA, noradrenaline, and serotonin transporters (up to 10 μM), suggesting that neither the side effects nor antidepressant actions of ketamine or ketamine metabolites are associated with direct effects on mesolimbic DAergic neurotransmission.

Teodor T. Postolache,Abhishek Wadhawan,Adem Can,Christopher A. Lowry,Margaret Woodbury,Margaret Woodbury,Hina Makkar,Andrew J. Hoisington,Andrew J. Hoisington,Alison J. Scott,Eileen Potocki,Michael E. Benros,John W. Stiller +12 more
TL;DR: The main objective of the article is to point toward modifiable molecular and cellular mechanisms that may modify the outcomes in TBI, and contribute to increasing the translational value of interventions that have been identified in animal models of TBI.
