nervous system
• at 13 weeks of age, mice exhibit accelerated adult neurogenesis in the granule cell layer of the olfactory bulb compared with wild-type mice
• increased at 13 weeks of age in the dentate gyrus and subventricular zone
• at 13 weeks of age, mice exhibit accelerated adult neurogenesis in the granule cell layer of the olfactory bulb compared with wild-type mice
• decreased size

homeostasis/metabolism
• tryptophan concentrations in the hippocampus and midbrain are increased more than 20-fold compared to in wild-type mice
• tryptophan and tryptophan metabolite kynurenine plasma levels are increased 9.3-fold and 2-fold, respectively, compared to in wild-type mice
• methionine plasma levels are increased 1.3-fold compared with wild-type mice
• threonine plasma levels are increased 1.3-fold compared with wild-type mice
• 2-fold in the midbrain and hippocampus, 5-fold higher 5-HT metabolite 5-HIAA

behavior/neurological
N
• mice exhibit normal total locomotion in an open field test
• in an elevated plus maze test, mice spend more time in the open arms compared with wild-type mice
• in an open field test, mice spend more time in the center and increased locomotion in the center area compared with wild-type mice

cellular
• at 13 weeks of age, mice exhibit accelerated adult neurogenesis in the granule cell layer of the olfactory bulb compared with wild-type mice
• increased at 13 weeks of age in the dentate gyrus and subventricular zone
