Output Details

Description
This protocol describes motor behavioral assays used to assess motor function in a 6-OHDA mouse model of Parkinson's disease. These assays include open field, rotarod, cylinder, and balance beam tests. Prior to each behavioral test, mice were habituated to the testing room for 30-40 min. All behavioral tests were performed 3-4 weeks following stereotaxic injections
