Figure 1. Normal performance of DAT+/− mice in basic behaviors.

Figure 1

(A) Normal open field locomotor behavior in DAT+/− mice (p>0.05). (B) Indistinguishable motor learning in the 1-hour rotarod tests between the DAT+/− mice and wild-type littermates (p>0.05). (C) Normal performances of the DAT+/− mice in the 1-day rotarod tests (p>0.05). (D) Indistinguishable performances on the elevated plus maze, suggesting no changes in their anxiety level in DAT+/− mice (p>0.05). (E) DAT+/− mice showing normal learning and memory in the novel object recognition test. 1-day retention tests were used. (p>0.05). (F) DAT+/− mice showing normal hippocampal dependent contextual emotional memory as assessed by contextual fear conditioning. 1-day retention tests were used (p>0.05). Control mice, n = 9; KO mice, n = 10. Data were calculated as Mean ± SEM. Either ** or *Indicates a significant difference between groups for a given point in time (**p<0.01, *p<0.05). Either ★★or ★Indicates a significant difference within groups for a given point in time (★★p<0.01, ★p<0.05).
