Phenotypic Profile
Category Entity Quantity Experimental Paradigm Age at Testing
Sensory Tactile memory1
Decreased
Description: Mice with loss of mecp2 from primary somatosensory neurons in adulthood still leads to decreased glabrous skin tactile discrimination of objects differing only in texture
Exp Paradigm: NA

Textured novel object recognition test (t-nort) 6-8 weeks
Sensory Sensorimotor gating: tactile cue1
Decreased
Description: Mice with loss of mecp2 from primary somatosensory neurons in adulthood have decreased sensorimotor gating in prepulse inhibition with hairy skin tactile prepulse
Exp Paradigm: NA

Prepulse inhibition 6-8 weeks
Sensory Touch1
Increased
Description: Mice with loss of mecp2 from primary somatosensory neurons in adulthood have increased sensitivity to air puff alone
Exp Paradigm: NA

Response to air puff 6-8 weeks
