behavior/neurological

behavior/neurological phenotype ( J:100971 )

N • mice show equal performance to wild-type in the hanging grid test and forced swim test, and show almost no impairment of the righting reflex

impaired coordination ( J:100971 )

• double mutants are unable to remain on the rotating rod

nervous system

abnormal axon morphology ( J:100971 )

• in 3-month old mice, dilated axons are observed, but numbers are reduced ~10-fold compared to Tg(Thy1-MAPT)2Vln homozygotes in spinal cord and cerebral cortex

• axonal dystrophic changes are dramatically reduced in mice expressing both transgenes

muscle

muscle phenotype ( J:100971 )

N • quadriceps is normal and devoid of any muscle wasting
