| Dyrk1A Mutant Drosophila minibrain flies have a reduction in both optic lobes and central brain, showing learning deficits and hypoactivity  | |
mice overexpressing the full-length cDNA of Dyrk1A exhibit delayed cranio-caudal maturation with functional consequences in neuromotor development, altered motor skill acquisition and hyperactivity, a significant impairment in spatial learning and cognitive flexibility, hippocampal and prefrontal cortex dysfunction |
|
Dyrk1A(-/-) mice have a general growth delay and die during midgestation and Dyrk1A(+/-) mice show decreased neonatal viability and a significant body size reduction from birth to adulthood |
|
Dyrk1a overexpression in primary mouse cortical neurons induced severe reduction of the dendritic growth and dendritic complexity |
|
increased expression of phospho-Thr(192)-RCAN1 was observed in the brains of transgenic mice overexpressing the Dyrk1A protein |
|
normalizing Dyrk1A gene expression in the striatum of adult TgDyrk1A mice, by means of AAVshRNA, clearly reverses motor impairment |
