N |
• mice exhibit normal anxiety and depression behaviors in an open field, light-dark box or forced swim test
|
• decreased discrimination ratio
|
• decreased discrimination ratio
|
• increased latency to reach the platform during training and latency to cross the platform on the test day in a Morris water maze test
• mice exhibit reduced entries in the platform zone on test day in a Morris water maze test compared with wild-type mice
• mice spend less time in the new arm of a Y-maze compared with wild-type mice
• however, number of entries in a Y-maze is normal
|
• mice spend less time in the social target side compared with wild-type mice

nervous system
N |
• mice exhibit normal neuron survival
|
• reduced apical dendritic branching, basal dendritic branching and basal dendritic spines in the medial prefrontal cortex
• however, mice exhibit normal apical dendritic branching, basal dendritic branching, apical dendrite spines and basal dendrite spines in the hippocampus
