behavior/neurological
N |
• mice perform normally in a startle hearing test and exhibit normal prepulse inhibition and susceptibility to chemically induced seizures
|
• young mice exhibit a reduction in the percentage of correct alternations in a Y-maze compared with wild-type mice
• however, this difference is not observed 30 weeks later
|
• at 14 and 44 weeks mice exhibit decreased performance on a rotarod over time unlike wild-type mice
|
• following formalin-induced inflammation, behavioral pain scores at phase 1 and 2 are less than for wild-type mice
• following carrageenan-induced inflammation, mice display a reduction in Hargreaves' withdrawal latency and fail to exhibit a reduction in Von Frey's withdrawal force compared to similarly treated wild-type mice

)
• mice exhibit increased time before hind paw shake or lick when tested on a hotplate at 50 and 53 degrees Celcius, delayed withdrawal time in the Hargreaves' plantar test at radiant heats of 136 and 164 mW/cm2/s, and age-dependent increased applied force needed to induce paw withdrawal using an automated Von Frey's plantar aesthesiometer compared to similarly treated wild-type mice

• mice exhibit increase time before hind paw shake or lick when tested on a hotplate at 50 and 53 degrees Celcius and delayed withdrawal time in the Hargreaves' plantar test at radiant heats of 136 and 164 mW/cm2/s compared to similarly treated wild-type mice
• however, mice react normally to hotplate temperatures of 55 degrees Celcius and radiant heats of 190 mW/cm2/s in the plantar Hargreaves' test
