Calb1tm1Mpin mutation (3 available); any Calb1 mutation (27 available)
phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• mutants do not display ataxia in standard environments; when challenged (with a runway test or rotarod test) coordination is severely disturbed compared to controls
• mice display a shaky tremor which usually worsens during movement; controls do not show any tremors

nervous system
• dendritic calcium transients associated with complex spikes (synaptic response) upon climbing fiber stimulation is altered in mutants compared to controls; peak amplitudes are enhanced by ~80% over wild-type

hearing/vestibular/ear
N
• at 4-8 months, homozygotes exhibit normal cochlear morphology, as well as normal hearing and cochlear OHC function, as assessed by baseline auditory brainstem evoked responses and DPOAEs, respectively
• at 3 weeks after exposure to a moderate noise trauma, homozygotes exhibit a similar loss of cochlear hair cells to wild-type mice, with no significant differences in permanent threshold shifts of ABR or DPOAE amplitudes

N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• 2-month old heterozygotes show significant deficits in initial trials in a thin horizontal rod test compared to controls but are significantly better than homozygotes; after first 2 sessions, no significant difference remains between mutant groups

nervous system
• heterozygotes show a significant increase in dendritic calcium transients upon climbing fiber stimulation compared to controls

cellular
• total mitochondrial volume density in Purkinje cells of mutants is increased by ~40% compared to controls, similar to Pvalb single mutants

nervous system
• the surface of the membrane-enclosed cisternae just below the plasma membrane (sPL-sER) per surface of plasma membrane ratio is 30-40% smaller in Purkinje cells of mutants similar to Pvalb single mutants
• total mitochondrial volume density in Purkinje cells of mutants is increased by ~40% compared to controls, similar to Pvalb single mutants
