Unexpected, partial genetic “rescue” of behavioral and synaptic phenotypes in vehicle-treated Shank3G/GCreTam+ mice. The decreases in nest width (A) and height (B) in Shank3G/G mice are rescued in vehicle-treated Shank3G/GCreTam+ mice. The Shank3G/Gmarble-burying phenotype (C) and initial locomotor hypoactivity in the open field test (D) are not rescued in vehicle-treated Shank3G/GCreTam+ mice. E, There is no main effect of genotype in time to fall from the rotarod in vehicle-treated Shank3GCreTam+ mice. Shank3+/+ n = 26, Shank3+/G n = 21, Shank3G/G n = 15. F, There is no main effect of genotype on fEPSP slope in response to a range of stimulus intensities. Inset, Average of five consecutive traces at each stimulus intensity 0–350 μA in 50-μA steps from Shank3+/+ (top) and Shank3G/G (bottom) mice treated with vehicle diet; scale bar = 0.25 mV, 5 ms. Shank3+/+ n = 16 slices from six mice, Shank3G/G n = 16 slices from five mice; *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.0001, ****p < 0.00001.
