Learning and memory in mHb:DTA mice. (A–C) Spatial learning and memory in the Morris water maze (mice were 7–8 months-old, n = 12/group). (A) There were no differences between genotypes in the acquisition rates, swim distances (A), or escape latency (B). (C) Probe tests revealed significant quadrant preference for the controls [F(3, 44) = 8.5] but not mHb:DTA mice [F(3, 44) = 1.5]. T, O, L, and R represent target, opposite, left and right quadrants, respectively. (D) There were no differences between genotypes in freezing rates during conditioning or contextual- and cue-dependent memory tests (mice were 6–7 months old, n = 12/group). (E,F) Radial maze test. Number of revisit errors (E) and arms chosen during the first 8 visits (F) (mice were 3–4 months old; n = 12/group). Statistical analyses were performed for data from days 8 to 14, F(1, 22) = 10.1 (E) and 13.4 (F). Data represent mean ± SEM.
