Extensive characterization of a Williams Syndrome murine model shows Gtf2ird1-mediated rescue of select sensorimotor tasks, but no effect on enhanced social behavior

J. D. Dougherty, K. R. Nygaard, S. E. Maloney, R. G. Swift, K. B. McCullough, R. E. Wagner, S. B. Fass, K. Garbett, K. Mirnics, J. Veenstra-VanderWeele

This study characterizes a Williams Syndrome mouse model, showing Gtf2ird1 overexpression rescues some sensorimotor tasks but not social behavior.

A comprehensive assay of social motivation reveals sex-differential roles of ASC-associated genes and oxytocin

S. E. Maloney, S. Sarafinovska, C. Weichselbaum, K. B. McCullough, R. G. Swift, Y. Liu, J. D. Dougherty

This paper develops a new social motivation assay in mice to study sex-differential roles of ASC-associated genes and oxytocin, finding distinct vulnerabilities in males and females.

Oxytocin receptor activation does not mediate associative fear deficits in a Williams Syndrome model

K. R. Nygaard, R. G. Swift, R. M. Glick, R. E. Wagner, S. E. Maloney, G. G. Gould, J. D. Dougherty

This study investigates whether oxytocin receptor dysregulation contributes to fear memory deficits in a Williams Syndrome mouse model, finding no rescue of fear responses with an oxytocin receptor antagonist.
