Notes |
Transgenic mice on a C57BL/6 congenic background exhibit paralysis resulting in a reduced life expectancy, and may serve as a model for human amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Paralysis in these mice is due to loss of motor neurons from the spinal cord. The onset of the ALS phenotype in these mice is delayed compared to mice carrying the original high copy number transgene Tg(SOD1*G93A)1Gur.
Transgenic mice on a genetic background involving C57BL/6 and SJL become paralyzed in one or more limbs beginning around six to seven months of age. Life expectancy for these mice is normally four to six weeks beyond onset of symptoms. |
