mortality/aging
• only 21% of males and 40% of females live past 12 months of age
• the median survival age for males is 32 weeks and for females 48 weeks
• the rapid loss of male mice starts around 7 months of age and for females at 9 months of age
|
growth/size/body
• body weight of mice becomes significantly greater than controls at 11 weeks of age for females and 14 weeks of age for males
• mice remain heavier for at 34 weeks of age
|
behavior/neurological
• mice have less habituation to an open field as determined by less decrease in locomotor activity on the third exposure compared to the first
|
• 4-month old mice take longer than controls to reach a hidden platform in a morris water maze
• differences were not observed at 2, 6, and 8 months of age
|
• mice at 4 or 8 months of age swim further away from target than controls both 1 day and 7 days after last learning session in a morris water maze
|
• 8 month old males bury fewer marblesthan controls, which is suggestive of increased anxiety
|
• control mice 8 months of age spent 66% of the time exploring a novel object whereas the mutant mice only spent 54% of the time exploring the novel object
|
• 61.0% of mutant mice do no react to an acoustic startle compared to 9.7% of control mice that do not react
|
• mice have decreased horizontal activity when placed into a new environment
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• urinary secretion of glycosaminoglycans is 4- to 20-fold higher than controls regardless of age
|
renal/urinary system
• urinary secretion of glycosaminoglycans is 4- to 20-fold higher than controls regardless of age
