N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
N
• mice exhibit normal behavior in a forced swim test and auditory fear conditioning
• in a dark-light box, elevated plus maze, and novel object exploration tests

nervous system
• mice exhibit increased corticosterone-releasing hormone (CRH)-evoked excitatory field potentials on glutamatergic neurons compared with control mice
• CRH fails to enhance propagation of neuronal activity from hippocampal input region and CA1 input compared with control mice

homeostasis/metabolism
N
• mice exhibit normal basal and stress-induced corticosterone levels

N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• in the light-dark box paradigm, mutant mice spend significantly more time in the lit compartment, display a decresead latency to enter the lit compartment, and show a signicantly higher number of entries into the lit compartment than control mice; however, no significant differences in the number of entries into the dark compartment are observed
• in the elevated plus maze test, mutant mice display significantly fewer head-dips in the protected arms as a percentage of total head dips, and an increase in the percentage of entries into the open arms; however, no significant differences in the number of entries into the closed arms are observed
• mutant mice display increased locomotor activity in the open-field paradigm

homeostasis/metabolism
• although basal plasma corticosterone levels are normal, mutant mice display significantly higher plasma corticosterone levels at 30 and 90 min after a 5-min restraint stress relative to similarly-stressed control mice
• although basal plasma ACTH levels are normal, mutant mice display significantly higher plasma ACTH levels at 30 and 90 min after a 5-min restraint stress relative to similarly-stressed control mice
