From: A role for tau in learning, memory and synaptic plasticity
The visible platform and the Morris water maze tests show no visual, motivational spatial learning and retention memory deficit in 10-month-old Mapt−/− mice. Visual task: path length swam to reach the visible platform (a) and mean speed with which mice swam to reach the visible platform (b) revealed no significant effect of genotype (one-way ANOVA). (c) The schematic illustration of the Morris water maze task is represented above the mean path lengths for the A1 and A2 sessions. (d–f) Time spent in the target quadrant during the P1, P2 and P3 trials; (g–h) Counter crossings in the target platform during the P1, P2 and P3 trials; (k–l) Proximity to the target platform during the P1, P2 and P3 trials. Data are expressed as means ± S.E.M, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, Tukey’s multiple comparisons test.
