Abstract
Abstract Many mutant mouse strains display pathological behaviors, such as head tilts, head bobbing, or circling and waltzing, strongly suggesting that their vestibular system is impaired. Recently, Yoder and Taube studied head direction signals in tilted mutant mice, which have an impaired gravitation sensitivity in the vestibular periphery. Here we summarize their findings and discuss a caveat related to the general use of mutant mouse strains in systems physiology. Footnotes Copyright © 2009 the American Physiological Society
