Neuronal activation1 |
Increased
Description: Mutants show a larger number of c-fos positive cells in the dorsomedial striatum (dms) following the early visual discrimination session, compared to controls. mutants show no change in the number of c-fos positive cells in the dorsomedial striatum (dms) following the late visual discrimination session, compared to controls. mutants show no change in the number of c-fos positive cells in the dorsolateral striatum in the early visual discrimination phase, compared to controls, although both mutants and controls show an increase in the number of c-fos positive cells in the late session compared to the early visual discrimination session.
Exp Paradigm: NA

Perseveration1 |
Increased
Description: Mutants show higher number of correction trials as a ratio of errors (perseveration index) in the early discrimination sessions, compared to controls. mutants show no change in perseveration index in the late discrimination sessions compared to controls.
Exp Paradigm: Touching the incorrect stimulus in the correction trials was assayed as a measure of perseveration.

Reward reinforced choice behavior1 |
Decreased
Description: Mutants show no change in the pre-training phase compared to controls. mutants needed more trials to reach criterion for reward and performed more correction trials, compared to controls, in the visual discrimination task. mutants showed fewer correct responses in the early phase of the visual discrimination task compared to controls. mutants show no change in capacity to ultimately attain the same level of accuracy as controls.
Exp Paradigm: Mice are subjected to a touchscreen-based visual discrimination task involving discrimination of two stimuli for a liquid reward. pre-training included habituation, initial touch, must touch, must initiate, and punish incorrect, phases.
