behavior/neurological
• prior to tamoxifen administration, mice exhibit decreased total distance travelled in open field test as compared to controls
• following tamoxifen administration, phenotype is unchanged
• prior to tamoxifen administration, mice spend less time in open arm during elevated zero maze test as compared to controls
• following tamoxifen administration at P20-21, mice exhibit reduced anxiety in the maze test
• tamoxifen administration in adult mice results in an unchanged phenotype
• prior to tamoxifen administration, mice exhibit repetitive grooming
• following tamoxifen administration, grooming is similar to control
• prior to tamoxifen administration, mice exhibit decreased latency to fall in rotarod test as compared to controls
• following tamoxifen administration at P20-21, mice perform significantly better on rotarod
• tamoxifen administration in adult mice results in an unchanged phenotype
• prior to tamoxifen administration, mice exhibit reduced rearing time and frequency as compared to controls
• following tamoxifen administration, phenotype is unchanged
• prior to tamoxifen administration, mice exhibit no preference for a stranger mouse or novel object in a test of voluntary social interaction
• following tamoxifen administration, mice exhibit a preference for a stranger mouse over a novel object in a test of voluntary social interaction

growth/size/body
• as compared to wild-type mice (no tamoxifen administered)

nervous system
• prior to tamoxifen administration, mice exhibit a reduction of spine density in medium spiny neurons as compared to controls
• following tamoxifen administration, spine density is increased to a greater density than controls
• prior to tamoxifen administration, mice exhibit a reduction of spine density in medium spiny neurons
• following tamoxifen administration, spine density is increased to a greater density than controls
• prior to tamoxifen administration, mice exhibit a reduced field population spikes in the dorsal striatum as compared to controls
