Timed active avoidance learning in lurcher mutant mice.

Abstract excerpt

Lurcher mutant mice (+/Lc) which exhibit a massive loss of neurons in the cerebellar cortex and in the inferior olivary nuclei were subjected to an active avoidance learning task; the animals' avoidance response must occur within a small time window after a short or a long delay. The control mice needed a mean of 8.3 sessions of 10 trials (short delay group) and of 11.8 sessions (long delay group) and showed good...
