ht1

• Allelic Composition: 2310039L15Rik^{Tg(Prnp-SNCA*A53T)23Mkle}/2310039L15Rik⁺
• Genetic Background: involves: C3H/HeJ * C57BL/6J

• ♀: phenotype observed in females
• ♂: phenotype observed in males
• N: normal phenotype

mortality/aging

premature death ( J:77344 , J:327648 )

• within 14-21 days of onset of motor problems and disease onset, mutants rapidly progress to death most likely due to inability to feed and drink (J:77344)

• mice live an average of 10 months (J:327648)

nervous system

abnormal nervous system morphology ( J:77344 )

• average age of onset of clinical abnormalities is 10.1 +/- 1.2 months

• neuropathological abnormalities develop before motor dysfunction is visible

astrocytosis ( J:77344 , J:327648 )

• astroglial reaction is seen in the midbrain, deep cerebellar nuclei, brainstem and spinal cord, indicating neurodegeneration, but not in the cortex, hippocampus, thalamus, and caudate/putamen (J:77344)

• substantial GFAP immunoreactivity in symptomatic mice (J:327648)

abnormal neuron morphology ( J:77344 )

• mutants exhibit accumulation of ubiquitin and phosphorylated Nefh (NF-H) in perikarya and neurites

• affected neurons contain fibrillar inclusions

• abnormal neuronal accumulations are not seen in mutants younger than 4 months of age

loss of dopaminergic neurons ( J:327648 )

neuronal intranuclear inclusions ( J:77344 )

• mutants exhibit accumulation of alpha-synuclein in neuronal cell bodies and neurites of the midbrain, cerebellum, brainstem and spinal cord

abnormal spinal cord morphology ( J:77344 )

• spinal cord exhibits astrocytic response and ubiquitin and alpha- synuclein accumulation in ventral horn motor neurons

neurodegeneration ( J:77344 )

• mutants develop adult-onset neurodegenerative disease

• astroglial reaction is seen in the midbrain, deep cerebellar nuclei, brainstem and spinal cord, indicating neurodegeneration

behavior/neurological

abnormal motor capabilities/coordination/movement ( J:77344 )

• mutants develop motor signs characterized by sustained posturing, reduced amplitude, and abundance of spontaneous activity with age

impaired righting response ( J:77344 )

• mutants eventually develop progressive loss of righting reflex

dystonia ( J:77344 )

ataxia ( J:77344 )

increased vertical activity ( J:327648 )

• mice show a significant increase in vertical activity in the open field at 6 months of age

increased locomotor activity ( J:327648 )

• mice show a significant increase in horizontal activity in the open field at 6 months of age

bradykinesia ( J:77344 )

paralysis ( J:77344 )

• mutants eventually develop paralysis

muscle

dystonia ( J:77344 )

cx2

• Allelic Composition: 2310039L15Rik^{Tg(Prnp-SNCA*A53T)23Mkle}/2310039L15Rik⁺; Zfp746^tm1.1Tmd/Zfp746^tm1.1Tmd
• Genetic Background: involves: 129S4/SvJae * C3H/HeJ * C57BL/6J

mortality/aging

extended life span ( J:327648 )

• mice live an average of 15 months, which indicates prolonged survival by 5 months compared to single 2310039L15Rik^{Tg(Prnp-SNCA*A53T)23Mkle} heterozygotes

behavior/neurological

decreased vertical activity ( J:327648 )

• mice show a reduction in vertical activity in the open field at 6 months of age compared to single 2310039L15Rik^{Tg(Prnp-SNCA*A53T)23Mkle} heterozygotes

decreased locomotor activity ( J:327648 )

• mice show a reduction in horizontal activity in the open field at 6 months of age compared to single 2310039L15Rik^{Tg(Prnp-SNCA*A53T)23Mkle} heterozygotes
