mortality/aging
nervous system
|
• radial migration of late-born neurons is delayed
• however, lamination of the cerebral cortex and radial glial cell formations are normal
|
|
• at P20, the thickness of the corpus callosum is decreased due to defasciulation of cortical afferents
|
|
• at P20, the thickness of the anterior commissure is decreased due to defasciulation of cortical afferents
|
|
• unlike in wild-type mice, Purkinje cells that normally align beneath the inner granule layer are malpositioned
• at P20, the Purkinje cell layer is disorganized
• however, arborization of dendrites is normal
|
|
• Purkinje cell size is reduced by 25% compared to wild-type
|
|
• unlike in wild-type mice, the inner granule layer is loosely packed and Purkinje cells that normally align beneath it are malpositioned
|
behavior/neurological
|
• at P14, mice exhibit impaired righting reflex when placed on their backs indicating decreased motor balance and coordination
|
|
• between P13 and P15, mice exhibit whole-body tremors
|
|
• in a hanging wire test, mice are 5 times less able to hold onto a hanging wire
|
|
• between P13 and P15, mice exhibit an awkward gait
|
growth/size/body
|
• mice are noticeably smaller 7 days after birth and weight 40% of wild-type by day 20
|
|
• although mice are born normal they stop growing a few days after birth
|
cellular
|
• radial migration of late-born neurons is delayed
• however, lamination of the cerebral cortex and radial glial cell formations are normal
