phenotype observed in females

N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• mice with a paternally inherited duplication (patDp/+) exhibit impaired delay eye blink conditioning, showing fewer conditioned responses than wild-type mice
• impairments in learning in patDp/+ mice are specific to de novo acquisition and are not accompanied by deficiencies in blink representation, extinction, or re-acquisition
• patDp/+ mice exhibit a greater stance width in the forelimbs during locomotion, longer stride length, reduced stride frequency, and enhanced propulsion duration, indicating a mild motor impairment
• patDp/+ mice show a longer stride length

nervous system
• young patDP/+ mice exhibit a higher number of Purkinje cells that are innervated by multiple climbing fibers than in wild-type mice, suggesting impaired synaptic pruning, while adults mice show climbing fiber elimination, a mild impairment of the pruning process persists
• however, patDP/+ mice do not exhibit cerebellar or Purkinje cell dendrite abnormalities
• long-term depression at cerebellar parallel fiber-Purkinje cell synapses is impaired, however LTP is unaffected

N normal phenotype
nervous system
N
• mice with a maternally (matDp/+) and paternally (patDp/+) inherited duplication bred normally and were fertile
• nosignificant abnormality was detected in H&E-stained sections of the olfactory bulb, cerebral cortex, hippocampus, amygdala, corpus callosum, and cerebellum either macroscopically or at the microscopic level
• no anatomical nor functional defects are found of the olfactory system in paternally inherited duplication bred mice

growth/size/body
• the patDp/+ male mice began to show an increase in body weight compared to wild-type (WT) mice after 15 weeks, and the body weight of patDp/+ was significantly greater than that of the WT after 20 weeks

cellular
• maternal and paternal allele-specific methylation is conserved in the mice with the duplicated allele

behavior/neurological
• patDp/+ mice showed higher freezing scores in the altered contextual environment than did the WT controls
• the patDp/+ mice show increased anxiety
• the patDp/+ mice show a generalized fear
• the patDp/+ mice show increased acoustic startle responce for 110-dB stimulus but not for 12-dB
• the patDp/+ mice show increased time for latency to fall on rotarod test
• in mice with a paternally inherited duplication in a three-chamber social interaction test
• patDp/+ mice do not respond as flexibly as WT and matDp/+ mice to a change in situation
• no impariment in spatial learning in patDp/+ mice
• ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) of neonatal mice that were separated from their dams are abnormal amoung patDp/+ mice
• the total number of vocalizations ranging from both audible and ultrasonic bands emitted by pairs of patDp/+ mice was significantly decreased compared with that of a WT pair

homeostasis/metabolism
• mice with a maternally inherited duplication (matDp/+) exhibit increased epinephrine levels in the striatum and frontal cortex
• mice with a paternally inherited duplication (patDP/+) exhibit increased epinephrine levels in the cerebellum and cortex
• both patDp/+ and matDp/+ mice exhibit increased dopamine levels in the striatum and the midbrain and patDp/+ mice also have increased levels in the frontal cortex
• matDp/+ mice exhibit increased DOPAC levels in the striatum while patDp/+ mice exhibit increased levels in the cerebellum, midbrain, and frontal cortex
• matDp/+ mice exhibit increased norepinephrine within the striatal, hippocampal and cerebellar regions
• mice with a paternally (patDp/+), but not maternally (matDp/+), inherited duplication exhibit decreased 5HT (serotonin) levels in the hippocampus and midbrain regions
• patDp/+ mice exhibit a decrease in HIAA, a major metabolite of 5HT, in the cortical and striatal regions
