Key Points

  • The research aims to connect behavioral metrics across multiple paradigms in mice with tauopathy and wild-type subjects.
  • Monitored 36 mice across four groups: wild-type and rTg4510 with and without doxycycline treatment.
  • Conducted home cage monitoring, trace eyeblink conditioning, and contextual fear conditioning at six months.
  • Collected data on locomotor activity, conditioned responses, and contextual freezing percentages.
  • 34 mice provided complete behavioral measurements for analysis across all tasks.
  • Showed significant cross-task correlations, particularly in learning metrics.
  • Detailed dataset available in CSV format with extensive metadata for further exploration.

Abstract

This dataset provides synchronized multimodal behavioral measurements from 36 mice across four experimental groups: wild-type and rTg4510 tauopathy mice, each tested with or without doxycycline-mediated suppression of mutant tau expression. Of these, 34 mice had complete measurements across all three behavioral paradigms and were used for analyses requiring full cross-task linkage. At six months of age, all animals underwent three standardized behavioral paradigms: home cage monitoring, ten-day trace eyeblink conditioning, and contextual fear conditioning. The individual-level data included locomotor activity, rearing duration, conditioned response metrics, eyelid closure latencies, and contextual freezing percentages. All measurements were linked using unique mouse identifiers, enabling cross-task analysis without preprocessing or imputation. The dataset was accompanied by a complete data dictionary, processing workflow diagram, and validation analyses demonstrating cross-paradigm correlations. The cross-task associations are illustrated in the main figures, with additional early phase acquisition and temporal processing correlations provided in the main figures. Provided in an open CSV format with detailed metadata, this resource supports behavioral phenotyping, machine learning applications, and the investigation of learning mechanisms in tauopathy models.
