behavior/neurological
• 1-year-old females show borderline deficits in the discrimination between novel and familiar objects, indicating minor recognition memory deficits
• however, males and younger females show normal novel object recognition and mice exhibit normal fear memory in contextual and cued fear conditioning
|
• 16-week-old females exhibit delayed pain response in the hot plate test
• however, males and females at other ages do not exhibit nociception defects
|
• in the 3-chamber interaction test, no difference is seen in the interaction time with the novel mouse versus an inanimate object compared to wild-type mice that show increased interaction with the novel mouse than the inanimate object in 13-week-old and 1-year-old mice
• however, mice do not exhibit repetitive behaviors, anxiety-like behaviors, motor learning and coordination deficits, or sensorimotor gating abnormalities
|
• in the partition test, mice (females at 13 weeks and 1 year of age and males at 1 year of age) spend less time interacting with a novel mouse that replaces the familiar mouse than controls
|
growth/size/body
• females, but not males, are heavier at 20 and 22 weeks but not at other time points from 3 to 26 weeks of age
|
nervous system
N |
• no differences in overall brain cytoarchitecture are seen and in neuronal density in the hippocampus, cerebellum, and amygdala
