Preparation Type:
|
Developmental Preparations

|
DA-related behavior:
|
Decreased open field exploration
|
|
Gating:
|
Impaired PPI

Molecular/morphological signature:
|
Reduced reelin expression in cortex layer 1; increased
pyramidal cell density; cortical and callosal atrophy;
reduced 5-HT levels in cerebellum atrophy; altered
expression of myelination genes in the cerebellum; reduced
5-HT levels in cerebellum; increased 5-HT2A receptor
expression in frontal cortex

|
Response to APD:
|
Clozapine and chlorpromazine increase PPI – hyper-reversal
of PPI deficit
