mortality/aging
|
• only 1 animal (1/65) lived to P35; rate is much higher than heterozygous Scn1atm2.2Kzy animals
|
|
• seizures occasionally result in immediate death
|
behavior/neurological
|
• mice are physically normal during first 2 weeks postnatal, but around P16 develop spontaneous generalized convulsive seizures
|
nervous system
|
• mice are physically normal during first 2 weeks postnatal, but around P16 develop spontaneous generalized convulsive seizures
|
|
• in cases of lethal seizures, postictal eletrocorticography (ECoG) activity progressively decreases and is undetectable within one minute after the seizure ends; if activity is maintained until recovery from postictal immobility and electrocorticography suppression, death does not result
