mortality/aging
• rapid postnatal death, with a medial survival age of 26 days
|
nervous system
• mutants exhibit enlarged peripheral nerves: brachial plexi, sacral plexi, trigeminal and sciatic nerves
• 100% exhibit enlarged branchial plexi
• 50% exhibit enlarged lumbar sacral plexi
• mast cells are seen in enlarged peripheral nerves
|
• enlarged peripheral nerves are graded as high-grade grade peripheral nerve sheath tumors (PNSTs) resembling human sporatic malignant grade peripheral nerve sheath tumors
|
• 92% exhibit enlarged trigeminal nerves
|
• mutants exhibit multiple enlarged dorsal root ganglia
|
• 50% exhibit enlarged sciatic nerves
|
neoplasm
• enlarged peripheral nerves are graded as high-grade grade peripheral nerve sheath tumors (PNSTs) resembling human sporatic malignant grade peripheral nerve sheath tumors
