Abstract

Earlier it was shown that the shortage of S100B protein in early ontogenesis affected formation of the behavioral phenotype in mice during the nesting period of development. This study focused on effects of S100B protein deficiency induced by immunization of female mice on behavior of their offspring at the age of 12 months in the open field. The motor and exploratory activity of females was increased whereas the activity of males born from immunized animals was decreased compared to the control. Also, normal sexual dimorphism of the open field behavior characteristic of 12-month old control ICR mice was lost.
