Abstrakt: |
The effect of deletion of monoamine oxidase A (MAO A) in the gene encoding on behavior of transgenic Tg8 mice was studied. A decrease in the amplitude of acoustic startle reflex rather than the prepulse inhibition was found in lacking MAO A Tg8 mice, as compared with the control C3H strain. The exploratory activity in the hole-board test in Tg8 was decreased as well as the number of crossed lines in the light-dark test. Tg8 mice showed decreased latency and increased intensity of intermale aggression. At the same time, no difference was found between Tg8 and C3H mice in locomotor activity, in the expression of sexual motivation, and in the behavior in the elevated plus-maze test. No predisposition to catalepsy was shown. |
