|
mortality/aging
|
• mutants die within about 3 days following clinical signs of neurological disease
|
nervous system
|
• brains of ill mutants contain abundant prion protein amyloid plaques; prion protein deposits are not resistant to proteinase K digestion
|
|
• mean age for development of neurologic disease is 146 +/- 2 days
• mean duration of illness (time from appearance of clinical signs to death) is reduced from 17 +/- 3 days in single Tg(Prnp*P101L)2866Sbp mice to 3 +/-1 days in double mutants

muscle
|
• subsarcolemmal accumulation of mitochondria and abnormalities in distribution of the sarcoplasmic reticulum
