mortality/aging
• mice fed a thiamine-restricted diet (0.60 mg thiamine/100 g food) die within 12 days of starting the diet
• mice fed a thiamine-restricted diet with an even lower percentage of thiamine (0.27 mg thiamine/100 g food) die within 14 days
• mice fed a conventional diet containing 1.71 mg thiamine/100 g of food survive for over 6 months without any disease phenotype
• mice that are returned to a conventional diet after 2 or 3 days on a thiamine-restricted diet, die within the next 24 days
• 4 of 7 mice that are returned to a conventional diet after 1 day on a thiamine-restricted diet recover and survive
• most mice that are returned to a high-thiamine diet (8.5 mg thiamine/100 g food) after 2, 3, and 5 days of a thiamine-restricted diet are rescued and survive

nervous system
astrocytosis
(
J:246593
)
• astrocyte activation is increased in the bilateral thalamic area of mice fed with a thiamine-restricted diet for 12 days
|
• after 5 days of a thiamine-restricted diet, the number of NeuN+ neurons in the submedial nucleus of the thalamus and ventral anterior-lateral complex of the thalamus is decreased to approximately 50%
• after 12 days of a thiamine-restricted diet, the numbers of NeuN+ neurons are decreased over a wide area of the thalamus, including the submedial nucleus of the thalamus
|
• the number of degenerating neurons in the submedial nucleus of the thalamus, ventral anterior-lateral complex of the thalamus and cortex is increased in mice fed a thiamine-restricted diet
• the brains of surviving mice on a high-thiamine diet after 2 days of thiamine restriction show a slight decrease in NeuN+ neurons, no significant astrocyte activation in the thalamus or acute neurodegeneration
|
behavior/neurological
• mice fed a thiamine-restricted diet exhibit immobility
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• thiamine levels in the blood of mice fed a conventional diet are deceased at 7 weeks of age
• thiamine levels in the blood of mice fed a thiamine-restricted diet are decreased
• thiamine concentration in the brain decreases steadily in mice fed a thiamine-restricted diet before mice present disease phenotypes
