behavior/neurological
• mice fatigue more quickly in exercise treadmill test exhibiting a 46% decrease in run-to-fatigue time
• no difference in grip strength or rotorod speed/time as compared to controls
|
cellular
• mitochondria are reduced in size in skeletal muscle, but not liver
• 45% reduction in mitochondrial density
• 33% reduction in average mitochondrial size
• increase in number of very small mitochondria
|
growth/size/body
• females and males have a reduced body weight as compared to wild-type mice at 7 and 14 weeks of age, respectively, however, no significant difference is observed at later ages
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• mice fatigue more quickly in exercise treadmill test exhibiting a 46% decrease in run-to-fatigue time
• no difference in grip strength or rotorod speed/time as compared to controls
|
muscle
• 24% increase in mean cross-sectional myofiber area in the tibialis anterior muscle
• however, there are no changes in percentage of extracellular matrix area or centralized nuclei
• increase is only observed in myosin heavy chain IIB expressing fibers
|
• females exhibit decreased muscle mass and a smaller gastrocnemius to body weight ratio at 7 weeks of age, however, by 14 weeks there is no significant difference
|
• reduction in oxidative capacity of myofibers
• 38% decrease in high succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activity myofibers
• 63% reduction in cytochrome c oxidase activity in red gastrocnemius muscle
