behavior/neurological
• while mice decreased initial coordination on day one of the rotarod, they show improved motor learning retention of day 2 of testing
|
• mice show a decrease in the number of marbles buried in the marble-burying task
• however, mice spend similar time in the central, anxiogenic region of the open field as wild-type mice, show similar latency to enter the light chamber in the dark/light test, and spend similar time in the light and dark chambers, and exhibit normal acoustic startle response and prepulse inhibition
|
• mice show increased time spend grooming
|
• females show decreased latency to fall from the rotarod on day one, however mice show improved motor learning retention on day 2 of testing
|
• females show less rearing while males only show a trend toward less rearing
|
• in the second trial of the 3-chamber test of sociability, mice do not show a preference for the social target over the inanimate object
|
• in the third trial of the 3-chamber test of sociability, mice do not show a preference for the social novelty
|
• mice show deficits in social recognition in the social interaction with juvenile test of social memory
|
nervous system
• mice exhibit decreased hippocampal long-term potentiation
• however, mGluR-dependent long-term depression is normal
