N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological

muscle
• muscular atrophy is evident
• mice exhibit variable signs of muscle weakness such as clenching of the paws, dragging of hind limbs and floppy tail

nervous system
• sciatic nerves shows widening of myelin lamellae
• poorly compacted areas show absence of the intraperiod line and occasionally, the major dense line is uncompacted, indicating packing abnormalities
• occasional sciatic nerve fibers show thick and redundant myelin at P28, likely indicating myelin outfolding or tomacula
• more frequent tomacula are seen at P7
• tomacula appear to originate from the paranodal region and contain poorly compacted myelin
• occasionally older mice show signs of axonal degeneration
• occasionally older mice exhibit demyelinating figures and short internodes suggesting remyelination
• however, no onion bulbs are seen at any age
• sciatic nerves at P28 show hypomyelination, with thin or absent myelin sheaths on many large caliber axons
• sciatic nerves at 7 months show more pronounced hypomyelination, with most large caliber axons showing very thin or absent myelin
