phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• in some mice injected with a cre-expressing adenovirus
• elevated touch withdrawal reflexes in mice injected with a cre-expressing adenovirus
• following induced spared nerve injury, mice injected with a cre-expressing adenovirus fail to exhibit detect brush even 1 week after nerve injury unlike control mice
• absence of responses to dynamic touch stimulation of hind paw in mice injected with a cre-expressing adenovirus
• following induction of inflammation induced by complete Freunds adjuvant (CFA) or capsaicin, mice injected with a cre-expressing adenovirus exhibit reduced response to brush, air puff and vibration stimuli compared with control mice
• however, response to pinch stimuli is normal

nervous system
• neurons in mice injected with a cre-expressing adenovirus fail to exhibit mechanically activated currents unlike control mice
• however, Adelta and C fiber response to high-threshold mechanical stimuli is normal
