behavior/neurological
N
• independent of parietal cortical neurotrauma, mice exhibit normal social interaction, sucrose preference test for anhedonia, forced alternation in a T-maze, novel object recognition, and pre-pulse inhibition
• in a Morris water maze, independent of parietal cortical neurotrauma
• in a Morris water maze, mice subjected to parietal cortical neurotrauma exhibit increased latency to escape by trial 6 through 8 compared with similarly treated wild-type mice
• independent of parietal cortical neurotrauma, mice spend less time in the center and intermediate area with increased time in the periphery of an open field compared with similarly treated wild-type mice
• however, mice exhibit normal anxiety-related behaviors in an elevated plus maze
• following parietal cortical neurotrauma
• in mice subjected to parietal cortical neurotrauma
• on a rotarod, independent of parietal cortical neurotrauma
• in an open field, independent of parietal cortical neurotrauma
• MK-801-treated mice subjected to parietal cortical neurotrauma exhibit increased hyperlocomotion compared with similarly treated wild-type mice

nervous system
• reduced volume following parietal cortical neurotrauma

N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• reduced exploration in new environment
• less active in open field
• initial higher latency to reach periphery but normal after the first day
• slower at 8 weeks in the Morris water maze but successful in acquisition and learning new positions, much slower at 1 year
• generally poor in acquisition learning and very poor in reversal learning
• impaired visual cliff avoidance test, more likely to approach the "cliff" and spend more time there
• keep whiskers for longer period of time
• rotarod performance decreases with time, initially normal, poor at 24 weeks
• pelvis held lower than normal
• one third of mice move backward rather than forward when placed in a new environment
• tend not to walk in a straight line, follow a weaving path
• less rearing activity
• fewer attempts to climb out of cages although strength is normal by hang wire test

nervous system

• defect coupling action potential to presynaptic release
• hippocampal EPSC amplitudes reduced 66% but increases with trains of stimuli
• affect is on fast synchronous release
• much less of neurotransmitter released
• decreased Ca+2 sensitivity
• evoked and spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic current amplitudes in hippocampal neurons are reduced compared to in wild-type mice
• the amplitude of spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic currents are decreased in pre-Botzinger complex neurons compared to in wild-type mice

• evoked miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents (mEPSCs) are slightly reduced while spontaneous mEPSCs are reduced 30% compared to in wild-type mice
• spontaneous mEPSC frequencies are decreased in hippocampal neurons and pre-Botzinger complex neurons compared to in wild-type mice
• the probability of vesicular release of the readily releasable pool is reduced 50% compared to in wild-type mice
• neuron calcium sensitivity of glutamate and GABA release is reduced compared to in wild-type mice
