Decrease in exploratory behavior in naturally occurring cholecystokinin (CCK)-A receptor gene knockout rats

Abstract

We recently found a specific strain of rats (Otsuka Long Evans Tokushima Fatty; OLETF rats) lacking cholecystokinin (CCK)-A receptor because of a genetic abnormality. Since CCK is an abundant neurotransmitter peptide in the brain, we examined whether these animals exhibit any behavioral abnormalities by conducting open-field tests. OLETF rats showed hypolocomotor activity and a decrease in the incidence of rearing in open-field tests. CCK release from the synaptosomes, and levels of CCK and CCK-B receptor mRNAs were the same as those observed in normal rats. It is suggested that the decreased exploration in OLETF rats may be due to the lack of CCK-A receptor.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
