Inhibitory neuron-specific inactivation of Hes1 leads to enhanced sociability and perseveration. (a) Crawley’s social interaction test. The number of contacts (Contact No), time spent in each compartment (Stay Time), distance traveled in each compartment (Distance), and number of entries into each compartment (Entry No) were recorded for wild-type control (n = 9) and Gad2-Cre;Hes1 cKO (n = 6) mice. Data are presented as mean ± SEM; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01; two tailed Student’s t-test. (b) Barnes maze test. Probe tests were done on day 1 (Test 1) and day 8 (Test 2) after the training sessions. The number of visits to the correct hole (correctN) and wrong holes (wrongN), time spent in the correct hole (correctT) and wrong holes (wrongT), and total distance traveled (distance) were measured for wild-type control (black, n = 9) and Gad2-Cre;Hes1 cKO (gray, n = 6) mice. Data are presented as mean ± SEM; *p < 0.05; two tailed Student’s t-test.
