behavior/neurological
N
• mice exhibit normal performance in the Morris Water Maze and the open field test
• mice exhibit a small increase in the time spent in the open arms of a zero maze compared with wild-type mice
• mice exhibit impaired performance on a ledge test compared with wild-type mice
• however, mice exhibit normal performance on a rotarod unlike Nr2c2tm1Chc homozygotes
• following nerve-injury induced persistent pain, mice exhibit less mechanical hyperalegsia with greater sensitized threshold compared with wild-type mice
• in a model of nerve injury-induced neuropathic pain or in the spared nerve injury model of neuropathic pain, mice exhibit a decreased magnitude of thermal hyperalgesia with absent mechanical hyperalgesia compared with wild-type mice
• in response to capsaicin or formalin
• mice exhibit increased reflex withdrawal thresholds in the von Frey test of mechanical pain compared with wild-type mice
• mice exhibit high response latencies in a hot plate test compared with wild-type mice
• however, mice exhibit normal response in the Hargreaves and tail immersion reflex withdrawal tests

nervous system
• alteration of primary afferent terminations in the dorsal horn
• neuronal loss in the superficial dorsal horn
• selective loss of excitatory neurons in the superficial dorsal horn
• however, projection neurons are spared
• mice exhibit decreased noxious stimulus-induced responsiveness of presumptive dorsal horn projection neurons compared with wild-type mice

growth/size/body

• puritogen-induced itch is absent
