behavior/neurological
N |
• mice exhibit normal behavior on the rotarod, in anxiety and nociception in the open field test, in the marble burying test, in the dark-light emergence test, elevated O-maze, hot plate test, and von Frey test, normal ultrasonic vocalization and do not show self-injury characteristics
|
• mice show impaired spatial memory in the Y maze, showing decreased duration in and entries into the novel arm, but not in the Morris water maze or in spatial working memory in the Y maze
|
• mice show a deficiency in novel position recognition in the place/position recognition test, with reduced exploration time and preference index of the novel position
|
• mice show impaired recognition ability in the novel object recognition test with lower preference index for the novel object and reduced exploration time of the novel object compared to controls
|
• mice exhibit increased climbing and jumping, indicating increased compulsive behaviors
|
• in the three-chambered social approach task, mice exhibit a lower preference index in the short-term social memory task between 2 stranger positions than in the social preference task between strangers and objects indicating deficiency of social memory
|
• mice show lower reciprocal social interaction and sniffing in the dyadic social interaction test
• however, social interaction time in the home cage and times of social interaction are unaffected in the home cage test
|
reproductive system
nervous system
• decrease in the complexity of basal dendrites on CA1 pyramidal neurons but the complexity of apical dendrites on CA1 pyramidal neurons is unaffected
|
• mushroom spines show longer heads and lengths and more immature spines
|
• decrease in the length of basal dendrites on CA1 pyramidal neurons but the length of apical dendrites on CA1 pyramidal neurons is unaffected
|
• while length and complexity of dendrites in the dentate gyrus are not affected, an increase in stubby dendrite spines is seen in the dentate gyrus
|
• long/thin spines show longer heads and lengths and more immature spines
|
• dentate gyrus granule cells show increased input resistance and increased intrinsic excitability
|
• the frequency of spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic currents is decreased in dentate gyrus granules cells which leads to a decrease in neuronal transmission in dentate gyrus neurons
|
taste/olfaction
N |
• mice exhibit normal olfaction
