N normal phenotype
nervous system
• doxycyclin-treated mice exhibit increased overall firing rate of dopamine neurons with a high prevalence of neurons firing at rates greater than 4 Hz compared to non-treated mice
• doxycyclin-treated mice exhibit higher non-bursting firing rates than in non-treated mice
• however, burst quantity and characteristics are the same regardless of doxycyclin treatment

behavior/neurological
• doxycyclin-treated mice exhibit more lever pressing when food deprived than wild-type mice or untreated mice
• in a choice condition, doxycycline-treated mice exhibit increased lever pressing compared to wild-type mice or untreated mice
• however, in a no-choice condition mice exhibit the same amount of lever pressing as in wild-type or non-treated mice, and learning is normal

homeostasis/metabolism
• doxycyclin-treated mice exhibit reduced dopamine clearance rates compared to in wild-type mice
