nervous system

abnormal axon fasciculation ( J:243785 )

• the abducens nerve has fewer hindbrain exiting bundles (30% reduction) that are over-fasciculated in the hindbrain and stalled with variable penetrance midway between the hindbrain and orbit at E11.5

• stalled abducens nerve bundles do not reach the orbit, resulting in secondary aberrant misinnervation of the lateral rectus muscle by the oculomotor nerve

• E11.5 embryos show errors in trochlear nerve projections; trochlear axons cross the midline and exit dorsally as in wild-type embryos, but the axons form multiple fascicles instead of one nerve bundle, most of which extend appropriately toward the contralateral orbit, but some turn back and misproject toward the ipsilateral orbit

abnormal innervation pattern to muscle ( J:262090 )

• while most motor nerves reach muscles, their fine branches are poorly arborized

• in the hip, thigh, and lower leg, the number of motor nerve terminals is reduced to over half of the muscles and is dramatically reduced in the lateral, middle, and medial muscles of the foot

• however, the width of motor nerves (the gracilis motor nerve) and the number of individual axons within motor nerves are normal

abnormal motor neuron innervation pattern ( J:262090 )

• motor nerves exhibit impaired axonal arborization in skeletal muscles in the forelimbs and hindlimbs, first seen around E12.5-E13.5

• axonal arborization defect in foot muscles is more severe than in other hindlimb muscles, with almost all fine branches absent in the E17.5 lateral, medial and medial muscles of the foot

• axonal arborization defects are more severe at the most distal part of the limb compared with proximal regions

• however, motor nerves exhibit normal trajectory patterns from the spinal cord to skeletal muscles and motor nerves develop a normal number of fine branches in some muscles such as vastus lateralis and biceps femoris

• early phase of axonal outgrowth is not affected

abnormal neuromuscular synapse morphology ( J:262090 )

• the number of neuromuscular junctions is reduced in the gracilis anterior muscle
