Structural aberrations of the vestibular aqueduct and endolymphatic sac in Slc26a4tm1.1Dontu/Slc26a4tm1.1Dontu mice

hearing/vestibular/ear
• marginal cells exhibit diminished membrane invaginations with vacuolization changes or interstitial edema
• enlarged
• at 8 weeks, mice exhibit a wide spectrum of hair cell loss and degeneration in the saccule and semicircular canals unlike wild-type mice
• hair cells in the utricle are more affected than those in the saccule and semicircular canals
• inner and outer hair cells
• loss of utricular hair cells is more significant in circling mice than non-circling mice
• enlarged fovea of the endolymphatic sac
• ectopic distribution in the semicircular canal
• in the utricle and saccule
• giant otoconia in the utricle and saccule
• increased threshold at all frequencies tested
• profound hearing loss
• circling mice exhibit significant vestibular dysfunction while non-circling mice exhibit only a minor degree of vestibular dysfunction

behavior/neurological
• circling mice exhibit poorer performance on reaching, swimming, gripping, and rotarod tests compared with wild-type mice
• poor reaching in circling mice
• in circling and non-circling mice on a rotarod
• in circling mice
• in circling mice
• in 23 of 50 mice before 3 weeks of age
• in 23 of 50 mice before 3 weeks of age

endocrine/exocrine glands
N
• mice exhibit a normal thyroid profile

renal/urinary system
N
• mice exhibit a normal renal profile

nervous system
• at 8 weeks, mice exhibit a wide spectrum of hair cell loss and degeneration in the saccule and semicircular canals unlike wild-type mice
• hair cells in the utricle are more affected than those in the saccule and semicircular canals
• inner and outer hair cells
• loss of utricular hair cells is more significant in circling mice than non-circling mice
