nervous system
• increase in the total number of excitatory synapses in the CA1 striatum radiatum
• increase in the total number of excitatory synapses in the CA1 striatum radiatum
• cell surface levels of GABBR2 and GABBR1 are increased in hippocampal slices and glutamate-dependent degradation of GABBR2 is abrogated
• enhanced synaptic plasticity
• increase in current density values for baclofen-activated currents in hippocampal neurons
• basal excitatory synaptic transmissions in CA1 pyramidal neurons are similar to wild-type controls

behavior/neurological
• decreased freezing in a contextual fear assay
• impaired long term spatial memory in a spatial object recognition task and in a Barnes maze
