behavior/neurological
| N |
• mice exhibit normal behavior in the elevated plus maze and show no deficits in memory in the spontaneous alternation, novel object recognition, Morris water maze, and contextual fear conditioning, or in activity in the open field test
|
nervous system
|
• primary hippocampal neurons from P1-P3 male and female mice show a reduction in arborization in the distal secondary and tertiary branching
• however, P14 mice do not exhibit changes in dendritic arborization, length, or spine density, or in the number of dendritic branch points
|
|
• primary hippocampal neurons from P1-P3 female and male mice show a reduction in total spines but no differences are seen between males and females
|
|
• both males and females show a reduction in stubby spines in primary hippocampal neurons at P1-P3 and females show
|
|
|
• P1-P3 females show an increase in thin spine type in primary hippocampal neurons compared to wild-type females and homozygous males
• P42 female mice show a modest but significant reduction in thin spines resulting in a reduction in the total spine density
