Figure 8. Cx-mGlu5 mice exhibit normal sensorimotor gating and a slight reduction in repetitive behaviors.

Figure 8

(A,B) Sensorimotor gating was measured by prepulse inhibition (PPI) of the acoustic startle response in Cx-mGlu5 KO mice in C57/129 mixed (A) or in C57BL/6 background (B) and their littermate controls. Summaries of the maximum startle response to a 120 dB white noise sound burst are shown in the left panel. Summaries for the inhibition of the acoustic startle response by either one of three prepulse levels (74, 78 and 82 dB) are shown on the right. (C) Summaries for the number of marbles buried by Cx-mGlu5 KO and control mice in C57BL6 background.
