mortality/aging
• Background Sensitivity: most of the affected F1 and F2 hybrids survive 6 months
|
behavior/neurological
• associated with absence seizures
|
• Background Sensitivity: spike-wave seizure activity is markedly enhanced compared to homozygotes on congenic backgrounds; seizures are longer in duration and very frequent by 4 weeks of age and persist several months
|
• mutants undergo rare spontaneous generalized tonic-clonic seizure episodes as early as 14 days og age; seizures are usually of less than one minute and are preceded by several seconds of wild running
|
• electrocorticographic recording from 4-5 week old (SJL x B6) F2 mutants display frequent episodes of generalized bilaterally symmetric spike-wave activity with a rhythmic periodicity ranging from 3 to 4.5 seconds; spikes are always preceded by waves; spike wave bursts are specifically associated with complete behavioral arrest for the durationof the discharge
