tg1

• Allelic Composition: Tg(SOD1*G37R)9Dpr/0
• Genetic Background: involves: C3H/HeJ * C57BL/6J

• ♀: phenotype observed in females
• ♂: phenotype observed in males
• N: normal phenotype

nervous system

abnormal motor neuron mitochondrial morphology ( J:69178 )

• motor neurons exhibit mitochondrial degradation

brain vacuoles ( J:69178 )

• mice exhibit vacuoles lesions in the olfactory bulb, the piriform cortex, several thalamic nuclei, some pons neurons, the choroid plexus, and the cerebellar roof nuclei

decreased motor neuron number ( J:69178 )

• at late stages

motor neuron degeneration ( J:69178 )

• motor neuron degeneration is observed in the ventral horns of the lumbar, thoracic, and cervical spinal cord as well as the brain stem

• degeneration is associated with vacuole formation in both dendrites and axons of motor neurons

behavior/neurological

tremors ( J:69178 )

• at 5 to 6 months of age, mice exhibit axial tremors

weakness ( J:69178 )

• at 5 to 6 months of age, mice exhibit asymmetric weakness of the limbs and when suspended by their tail exhibit difficulties extending and moving hindlimbs

decreased locomotor activity ( J:69178 )

• at 5 to 6 months of age, mice exhibit decreased spontaneous movement compared to wild-type mice

hindlimb paralysis ( J:69178 )

• eventually mice develop hindlimb paralysis

muscle

muscular atrophy ( J:69178 )

• at 5 to 6 months of age, mice exhibit muscle wasting particularly along the flanks

abnormal muscle electrophysiology ( J:69178 )

• mice exhibit spontaneous, positive sharp waves associated with denervation atrophy

cellular

abnormal motor neuron mitochondrial morphology ( J:69178 )

• motor neurons exhibit mitochondrial degradation

growth/size/body

weight loss ( J:69178 )

• progressive

renal/urinary system

abnormal proximal convoluted tubule morphology ( J:69178 )

• mice exhibit vacuolization of epithelial cells in the proximal tubules of the kidney

integument

rough coat ( J:69178 )

• at 5 to 6 months of age
