Elevated Plus Maze
Objective: Measurement of baseline fear and anxiety-like behavior in ASIC1-null mice using the elevated plus maze test
This is a Elevated Plus Maze protocol using mouse as the model organism. The procedure involves 1 procedural steps, 1 equipment items. Extracted from a 2003 paper published in Journal of Neuroscience.

Elevated Plus Maze Testing
ASIC1-null mice were tested on the elevated plus maze to assess baseline fear and anxiety-like behavior
Note: This test was conducted to evaluate amygdala-dependent behavior in the context of ASIC1 gene disruption

“ASIC1-null mice displayed deficits in cue and context fear conditioning, yet baseline fear on the elevated plus maze was intact”
