↓=performed worse than WT

↑=performed better than WT

↔=no different than WT

Y-maze: tendency to alternate arm choice, T-maze: choice of novel arm, MWM I: escape latency, MWM II: time spent in target quadrant after platform removal, RAM: errors, RAWM I: latency, RAWM II: errors

*

6month Tg animals differed from WT on last day of testing only

**

10 mos Tg animals differed from WT on days 2 and 4, but no differences were observed on day 1
