Conditional deletion of DCC from CA1 or CA3 pyramidal neurons does not impair performance of novel object recognition task. a Schematic representation of the novel object recognition task. b-d R4ag11-Cre/DCCfl/fl (red) show no significant differences in total exploration time (b; R4ag11-Cre/DCCfl/fl: n = 14, 22.1 ± 3.0 s, Control: n = 14, 27.6 ± 3.7 s; p = 0.26), time spent with novel object (c; R4ag11-Cre/DCCfl/fl: n = 14, 5.2 ± 1.6 s, Control: n = 14, 5.8 ± 2.3 s; p = 0.83), or investigation ratio (d; R4ag11-Cre/DCCfl/fl: n = 14, 0.63 ± 0.4, Control: n = 14, 0.60 ± 0.03 s; p = 0.52) compared to control littermates (black). e-g Grik4-Cre/DCCfl/fl did not spend more total time exploring objects (e; Grik4-Cre/DCCfl/fl: n = 6, 30.88 ± 8.851 s, Control: n = 8, 28.7 ± 4.9 s, p = 0.82), time spent with novel object (f; Grik4-Cre/DCCfl/fl: n = 6, 16.2 ± 4.6 s, Control: n = 8, 15.5 ± 3.0 s, p = 0.89), or investigation ratio (g; Grik4-Cre/DCCfl/fl: n = 6, 0.78 ± 0.02, Control: n = 8, 0.78 ± 0.02 s, p = 0.99)
