N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• increased mortality following transient ischemia is seen
• increased mortality from kainic acid or pentylenetetrazol exposures is seen

behavior/neurological
• increased sensitivity to kainic acid- and pentylenetetrazol-induced seizures
• linolenic acid and lysophosphatidylcholine do not protect against kainic acid-induced seizures unlike in wild-type mice
• decreased sensitivity to volatile anesthetics including; chloroform, halothane, sevoflurane, desflurane, and isoflurane, is seen

homeostasis/metabolism
• increased mortality from kainic acid or pentylenetetrazol exposures is seen
• the minimum alveolar anesthetic concentrations for volatile anesthetics are increased
• increased mortality and paralysis are seen following combined occlusion of the aortic arch and left subclavian artery to induce spinal cord ischemia
• increased mortality and seizure incidence are seen following transient bilateral occlusion of the common carotid arteries during systemic hypotension

nervous system
• increased sensitivity to kainic acid- and pentylenetetrazol-induced seizures
• linolenic acid and lysophosphatidylcholine do not protect against kainic acid-induced seizures unlike in wild-type mice
• increased mortality and paralysis are seen following combined occlusion of the aortic arch and left subclavian artery to induce spinal cord ischemia
• increased mortality and seizure incidence are seen following transient bilateral occlusion of the common carotid arteries during systemic hypotension
