cx1

• Allelic Composition: Gne^tm1Sngi/Gne^tm1Sngi; Tg(ACTB-GNE*D176V)9Sngi/0
• Genetic Background: involves: C57BL/6

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

mortality/aging

premature death ( J:117854 )

• lower median survival rate

muscle

abnormal myocardium layer morphology ( J:117854 )

• about 20% of mice develop fibrosis in the cardiac muscle after 30 weeks of age and some cardiomyocytes show amyloid deposition and rimmed vacuoles

abnormal skeletal muscle morphology ( J:117854 )

• 5 of 12 mice that died displayed rimmed vacuoles in the skeletal muscles

• muscle cross sections are positive for Congo red stained protein deposits and about 62% of rimmed vesicles contain amyloid proteins

• accumulation of these proteins starts at 32 to 34 weeks of age

abnormal skeletal muscle fiber morphology ( J:117854 )

• after 40 weeks of age, rimmed vacuoless and occasional inclusion bodies are seen in scattered fibers

skeletal muscle fiber atrophy ( J:117854 )

• some fibers appear atrophic by 40 weeks of age

increased variability of skeletal muscle fiber size ( J:117854 )

• increase in variation of fiber size with age that preferentially affects the gastrocnemius and quadriceps muscles

abnormal diaphragm morphology ( J:117854 )

• 3 of 12 mice had fibrosis and a few rimmed vacuoles in the diaphragm

muscular atrophy ( J:117854 )

• some muscles, particularly the gastrocnemius, are atrophic

abnormal muscle physiology ( J:117854 )

• vacuolated muscle fibers shows signs of the unfolded protein response and activation of autophagy

muscle weakness ( J:117854 )

• reduced muscle strength noted after 30 weeks of age

growth/size/body

decreased body weight ( J:117854 )

• after 30 weeks of age, mice weigh significantly less than control littermates

• lower body weight is more pronounced and develops earlier in females compred to males

homeostasis/metabolism

increased circulating creatine kinase level ( J:117854 )

• elevated serum creatine kinase activity compared to littermate controls starting at 30 weeks of age

cardiovascular system

abnormal myocardium layer morphology ( J:117854 )

• about 20% of mice develop fibrosis in the cardiac muscle after 30 weeks of age and some cardiomyocytes show amyloid deposition and rimmed vacuoles
