behavior/neurological
• ability to detect heat not altered
|
• significantly reduced response to pressure on the tail
• threshold response of the femoral nerve to pressure was increased
• absence of pressure sensitive C-fiber
|
• reduced frequency of writhing for 10 minutes after application of acetic acid to the abdomen
• avoidance of noxious odors unaltered
|
hearing/vestibular/ear
• at 24 weeks, homozygotes display significantly elevated ABR thresholds, with no detectable changes in DPOAE amplitudes relative to wild-type mice
• however, at 24 weeks, the stria vascularis, cochlear IHCs and OHCs, and spiral ganglion cells are morphologically normal with no significant changes in cell density
• no significant differences in ABR thresholds or DPOAE amplitudes are noted at 8 weeks of age
|
• at 1 week after acoustic overexposure (128 dB SPL), homozygotes exhibit a significantly greater ABR threshold shift, albeit with no differences in IHC and OHC loss relative to wild-type mice
|
• homozygotes display delayed-onset hearing loss, as assessed by ABR measurements at 24 weeks
