N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• increased transition between light and dark areas in a light-dark box assay

nervous system
N
• mice exhibit normal hippocampal synaptic plasticity
• increased number of mature spines and total protrusions in cortical neurons
• DHPG-treated cortical neurons fail to exhibit a decrease in the number of mature spines and an increased average length of dendritic protrusions unlike in wild-type cortical neurons

Mouse lines carrying:
Cyfip2tm1(KOMP)Vlcg mutation (0 available); any Cyfip2 mutation (59 available)
Fmr1tm1Cgr mutation (5 available); any Fmr1 mutation (28 available)
phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• increased transition between light and dark areas in a light-dark box assay that is more so than in single mutants with more time spent in the light area
• aggravated compared with Fmr1tm1Cgr males

nervous system
• hippocampal neurons exhibit increased density of think (immature) spines compared with wild-type neurons to the same extent as in Fmr1tm1Cgr males
• cortical neurons exhibit increased density of think (immature) spines compared with wild-type neurons to the same a greater extent than in Fmr1tm1Cgr males
