Coordination function in the P32–40 cohort of C57BL/6N, DBA/2, and FVB/N strains. (a) The grip strength test revealed FVB/N displaying the most powerful grip strength, DBA/2 showing the least grip strength with C57BL/6N being intermediate. (b) FVB/N displayed the lowest score in the beam balance rod test compared to C57BL/6N and DBA/2. (c) DBA/2 mice had the lowest latency to fall off a grid in the inverted screen test and reached significance compared to FVB/N mice. (d) In the cliff avoidance reaction test, no difference in the latency to fall off a cliff (left) or the number of falls (right) between the three investigated strains. Two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey post hoc test, *p ≤ 0.05, ***p ≤ 0.001. A black rectangle indicates a significant difference between sexes within a strain (see Supplementary Table 2). Blue and red dots refer to males and females, respectively. Error bars indicate the standard error of the mean (SEM).
