phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• following postnatal tamoxifen treatment (P5-P9), mice die significantly earlier than control mice, with a median survival at 23 weeks of age

growth/size/body
• tamoxifen-treated mice gain significantly less weight than controls from 10 weeks of age

behavior/neurological
N
• at 28-67 weeks of age, tamoxifen-treated mice show no significant differences in total SHIRPA scores relative to control mice
• tamoxifen-treated mice show more electroencephalographic seizure events than controls
• however, no spontaneous clinical seizures are observed

nervous system
N
• at 14-19 weeks of age, tamoxifen-treated mice show only a minor, insignificant decrease in the uptake of L-[3H]glutamate (~15%) and D-[3H]aspartate (~13%) into crude forebrain synaptosomes relative to controls
• tamoxifen-treated mice show more electroencephalographic seizure events than controls
• however, no spontaneous clinical seizures are observed
• tamoxifen-treated mice show a significantly higher number of automatically detected spike-trains (electroencephalographic seizures) per 20 min of scalp EEG recording relative to controls (18.7 +/- 7.2 vs 1.9 +/- 0.5)

N normal phenotype
nervous system
• at 14-19 weeks of age, the synaptosomal glutamate uptake capacity (Vmax) is reduced by ~40% relative to wild-type controls
• uptake of D-[3H]aspartate into crude forebrain synaptosomes is reduced by ~49% relative to controls
• however, both the GLT-1 protein and glutamate uptake activity that could be solubilized and reconstituted in liposomes are unaffected

mortality/aging
N
• mice exhibit normal survival up to 70 weeks of age

growth/size/body
N
• mice exhibit normal weight gain up to 24 weeks of age

behavior/neurological
N
• at 12-52 weeks of age, mice show no significant differences in total SHIRPA scores relative to control mice
• no spontaneous clinical seizures are observed
• no electrographic seizures are detected by scalp or tethered EEG recordings
