2K1C impairs hippocampus-related learning and memory in the 3xTg mice. 2-, 5-, and 7-month-old mice were given the 2K1C or the Sham operation, and their hippocampal learning and memory were determined at 1 month post-operation (termed 2 + 1, 5 + 1, and 7 + 1 groups). (A) Novel object recognition task. The percentages of novel object exploring time (time spent on novel object/time spent on both objects) of short-term (2-h) delay and long-term (24-h) delay. N = 2 + 1: Sham: 11, 2K1C: 16; 5 + 1: Sham: 14, 2K1C: 12; 7 + 1: Sham: 8, 2K1C: 8. p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗∗∗p < 0.001 versus respective Sham group, Bonferroni’s post hoc test. (B,C) Radial arm water maze. (B) 5 + 1 groups. N = Sham: 7, 2K1C: 6. (C) 7 + 1 groups. N = Sham: 6, 2K1C: 7. Escape latency: time to find the hidden platform; Error: total numbers of error made before finding the hidden platform.
