Hypomyelination in Sox10gt/Sox10gt brains

behavior/neurological
• rare survivors are seizure-prone and die suddenly

integument
• Background Sensitivity: mice show a white forehead blaze that is often positioned further back on the body, present as one or more stripes, or absent altogether compared to mice on the GT/Le background which show a consistent size and position of the forehead blaze

mortality/aging
• rare survivors are seizure-prone and die suddenly

nervous system
• rare survivors are seizure-prone and die suddenly
• Luxol fast blue staining is almost undetectable in brains, indicating that myelination is severely disrupted

pigmentation
• Background Sensitivity: mice show a white forehead blaze that is often positioned further back on the body, present as one or more stripes, or absent altogether compared to mice on the GT/Le background which show a consistent size and position of the forehead blaze
