Abstract
The frissonnant (fri) mutation is an autosomal recessive mutation which spontaneously appeared in 1977 in the stock of C3H mice of the Pasteur Institute in Paris. fri/fri mutation causes locomotor instability and rapid tremor. The tremor ceases when mutated animals sleep or are anaesthetized. In the light of these symptoms, it seems that fri/fri shares similarities with human Parkinson disease (PD). Here we give a precise and full description of the fri phenotype with an accurate behavioural, electrophysiological and histological analysis. The results show that fri/fri mice present an important motor deficit with visible tremor and stereotypies. We observed that fri/fri mice display some memory deficits as in human PD. We also show thatL-3,4-dihydroxyphenylananine and apomorphine (dopaminergic agonists), ropinirole (selective D2 agonist) and selegiline (a monoamine oxidase B inhibitor) improve the clinical status of these animals. Finally, we found that fri/fri mice did not display any anatomopathological evidence of nigrostriatal lesion nor a decrease in tyrosine hydroxylase production. We conclude that fri/fri mice present a dopamine-sensitive inherited motor syndrome associated with a parkinsonian syndrome, but are not a mouse model of PD disease. They could be used as a tool for studying and screening dopaminergic compounds with central activity.

The Four Plates Test is an exclusivity from BIOSEB!
The Aron test allows a quick characterization of putative anxiolytics compounds in naïve animals. A must for studying anxiety, drug screening and phenotyping.
