mortality/aging
• 50% of pups survive to adulthood

behavior/neurological
N
• normal locomotor capabilities in rotarod treadmill test
• normal locomotion
• persistent grooming of dorsal hind limb, beginning at 3 to 4 weeks of age
• resulted in fur loss and skin lesions
• using von Frey filaments
• reduced responses to capsaicin and to formalin
• higher latency inn tail-flick test
• higher latency in paw withdrawal tests of thermal sensitivity
• prolonged latency in hot plate test

embryo
• embryos showed delayed projections of primary sensory afferents in the dorsal horn, selectively affecting cutaneous afferents
• normal differentiation and development of sensory neurons of the dorsal root ganglia

nervous system
• loss of neurons in the dorsal horn, especially the lateral-most region
• 60% - 70% loss of dorsal horn neurons at the lumbar level
• no such loss in the ventral horn
• embryos showed delayed projections of primary sensory afferents in the dorsal horn, selectively affecting cutaneous afferents
• normal differentiation and development of sensory neurons of the dorsal root ganglia
