mortality/aging
• following paraquat treatment both median and maximal life spans are reduced compared to similarly treated wild type mice
|
behavior/neurological
• decreased improvement in rotarod performance over consecutive trials
|
• none of the mice are able to meet the learning criteria in a 70 day test period with a spatial version of the Barnes maze

|
homeostasis/metabolism
• increase in levels of lipid peroxides in the brain but not in the lung
• following treatment with paraquat (a reactive oxygen species generator) lipid peroxidation is increased to a greater extent compared to similarly treated wild type mice
