nervous system
• compound heterozygotes for these two alleles exhibit greatly reduced prepulse inhibition (PPI; p<0.001), i.e., less reduction of the startle response following a prepulse, compared to wild-type mice
|
behavior/neurological
• in the absence of a prepulse, the amplitude of the acoustic startle response of compound heterozygotes is significantly lower (p<0.05) than that of wild-type mice
