D, Plot of average threshold for responses to footshocks of increasing intensity for the indicated groups revealed no significant differences in footshock perception (ANOVA for visible response: F(3,74) = 0.5746, p = 0.6335; for gross motor response: F(3,74) = 0.1716, p = 0.91523; for vocalization: F(3,74) = 0.3167, p = 0.8133). N = 18 control+vehicle, 16 control+Aβ, 21 LCMT-GT+vehicle, and 23 LCMT-GT+Aβ.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Reduced LCMT-1 expression increases sensitivity to Aβ-induced impairments in contextual fear conditioning. A, Plot of average percent of time spent freezing (±SEM) during initial exposure to the training context (baseline) and 24 h after footshock for the indicated groups. ANOVA for freezing at 24 h showed a significant difference among groups (F(3,66) = 5.932, p = 0.0012). Tukey's multiple comparisons show that only the LCMT+Aβ group was significantly different from vehicle-treated controls (*p = 0.0015), and that the LCMT+Aβ group was also significantly different from Aβ-treated controls (p = 0.0272). No differences in baseline freezing on day 1 were observed among groups (ANOVA: F(3,66) = 1.284, p = 0.2873). N = 16 control+vehicle, 16 control+Aβ, 19 LCMT-GT+vehicle, and 19 LCMT-GT+Aβ. B, Plot of average distance traveled (±SEM) for the indicated groups during 10 min exposures to an open field environment on subsequent days revealed no significant differences between groups. Two-way repeated-measures ANOVA for distance with day and group as factors showed no significant effect of day (F(1,44) = 1.284, p = 0.2634) or group (F(3,44) = 0.1835, p = 0.9070). Pairwise Bonferroni comparisons between groups within a training day revealed no significant differences with p values < 0.05. N = 10 control+vehicle, 9 control+Aβ, 13 LCMT-GT+vehicle, and 16 LCMT-GT+Aβ. C, Plot of average number of entries into the center of an open field arena (±SEM) for the indicated groups during two 10 min exposures on subsequent days revealed no significant differences between groups. Two-way repeated-measures ANOVA for entries with day and group as factors shows a significant effect of day (F(1,54) = 7.45, p = 0.0085) but not group (F(3,54) = 0.6784, p = 0.5691). Pairwise Bonferroni comparisons between groups within a training day revealed no significant differences with p values < 0.05. N = 10 control+vehicle, 9 control+Aβ, 13 LCMT-GT+vehicle, and 16 LCMT-GT+Aβ. D, Plot of average threshold for responses to footshocks of increasing intensity for the indicated groups revealed no significant differences in footshock perception (ANOVA for visible response: F(3,74) = 0.5746, p = 0.6335; for gross motor response: F(3,74) = 0.1716, p = 0.91523; for vocalization: F(3,74) = 0.3167, p = 0.8133). N = 18 control+vehicle, 16 control+Aβ, 21 LCMT-GT+vehicle, and 23 LCMT-GT+Aβ.
