muscle
• with scattered small myotubues and central nuclei in the absence of obvious endomysial fibrosis but an increase in interstitial collagen fibrils
• in the lower back and hindlimbs
• smaller muscle diameter

nervous system
• 7-fold increase in Schwann cells that do not myelinate
• areas of amyelination with 2-fold reduction in myelinated axons and near-complete absence of enveloped axons and naked axons

behavior/neurological
• slightly tremulous and retracted inward limbs when suspended by tail
• with difficulty in ambulation

cellular
• 2-fold decrease of Schwann cell lamellipodial processesed basement membrane

limbs/digits/tail
• with scattered small myotubues and central nuclei in the absence of obvious endomysial fibrosis but an increase in interstitial collagen fibrils

N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• tremor that persists even under deep anesthesia
• in the most severely affected mutants, motor defects are also seen in the front legs
• mutants appear normal for 2-3 weeks after birth but by 4 weeks, begin to show hind leg weakness that leads to completely paralyzed hind legs by 3 months of age

nervous system
• Schwann cells are present in nerves but do not differentiate; they have a discontinuous basal lamina, are arrested at the premyelination stage and do not form myelin
• defect in axon sorting and myelination of the dorsal root of the spinal cord
• sciatic nerves are only partially myelinated and have large bundles of naked, unsorted axons
• defect in axon sorting and myelination of the dorsal root of the spinal cord
• sciatic nerves are only partially myelinated and have large bundles of naked, unsorted axons
• defect in axon sorting and myelination of the dorsal root of the spinal cord; more severe than in dorsal root
• Schwann cells in nerves have normal proliferation and apoptosis during development however, they fail to sort and myelinate axons
• regeneration of the sciatic nerve after injury is impaired

homeostasis/metabolism
• regeneration of the sciatic nerve after injury is impaired

muscle
• muscular atrophy is seen by 3 months of age
