behavior/neurological
N |
• mice exhibit normal social approach, response to social novelty, anxiety-like behavior, multi-trial associative learning, fear acquisition and consolidation and startle response
|
• following long-term intertrial intervals (ITI), mice exhibit impaired novel object recognition (NORE) capacity compared with wild-type mice
• however, NORE capacity is normal following a short-term ITI
|
• reduced latency to fall on a rotarod from 6 weeks of age
|
• increased activity, velocity and distance moved in pre-adult mice
• however, adult mice exhibit normal activity
|
• reduced touch-evoked biting
|
• following long-term intertrial intervals (ITI), mice exhibit impaired social recognition (SRE) compared with wild-type mice
• however, SRE is normal following a short-term ITI
|
nervous system
N |
• mice exhibit normal motor cortex layer thickness and cell number
|
• in deeper layers
|
• mice exhibit reduced total apical dendrite length, surface and number of intersections compared with wild-type mice
|
• increased spine number of the primary branch of apical dendrites
|
• in deeper layers of the cortex
