behavior/neurological
• mice exhibit a longer latency to fall from a rotating rod
• however, they show normal digigait test results, indicating that directional control, but not motor coordination, is impaired
|
• mice startle less than wild-type littermates in response to mixed frequency noise
|
• mice spend more time moving than controls during locomotor cell testing, indicating hyperactivity
• on average, mice run twice as quickly and travel twice as far as controls
|
• mice exhibit circling behavior
• mice are inclined to circle within the center of the test arena compared to controls that prefer the edges
• during the swim test, mice swim in circles compared to controls that occasionally float motionless or seek refuge at the outskirts of the test arena

craniofacial
otosclerosis
(
J:252089
)
• stapes shows an ectopic bone bridge extending from the tubercle to the otic capsule
|
• fusion of the stapedial footplate to the oval window of the cochlea
|
• however, mid-modiolar cochlea sections are normal
• ossicles show a range of malformations
|
• the incus shows malformation of the facet
|
• the incus shows incomplete development of the long process
|
• the incus shows incomplete development of the short process
|
• the malleus manubrium protrudes at an abnormally acute angle while the neck is thickened and malformed
|
• stapes is rounded and small with an ectopic bone bridge extending from the tubercle to the otic capsule
|
• fusion of the stapedial footplate to the oval window of the cochlea
