Analysis Tools
mortality/aging
 |
• mice exhibit a median lifespan of 95 days and do not survive past 187 days; mice die of lethal seizure
|
growth/size/body
|
|
• pups grow more slowly than wild-type pups, first apparent at P8, and adult growth does not catch up to the growth seen in wild-type mice
|
behavior/neurological
|
|
• mice spend more time in the closed arms and less time in the open arms of the elevated-plus maze, indicating increased anxiety in adults
• however, 8-12 week-old mice show no difference in time spent in the center of the open field arena is seen
|
|
|
• mice show increased ambulatory activity in the open field arena in adult 8-12 week-old mice
• however, no difference in time spent in the center of the open field arena is seen and pups show normal righting reflex
|
|
|
• males do not successfully mate despite having viable sperm
• adult males emit fewer ultrasonic vocalizations when paired with an unfamiliar estrous female, indicating impaired social male-female interaction
|
|
|
• adult males emit fewer ultrasonic vocalizations when paired with an unfamiliar estrous female, indicating impaired social male-female interaction
• however, pups show normal separation-induced ultrasonic vocalization
|
|
|
• mice exhibit increased threshold to 6 Hz electrically-induced limbic seizures
|
|
|
• mice exhibit decreased susceptibility to pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) induced generalized tonic-clonic seizures
|
|
|
• mice exhibit lethal spontaneous seizures (generalized tonic-clonic and maximal tonic seizures)
• however, 9 week old mice show no indication of epileptic activity, indicating that mice do not show recurrent (non-lethal) spontaneous seizures, and mice do not show evidence of seizure activity during handling

nervous system
|
|
• mice exhibit increased threshold to 6 Hz electrically-induced limbic seizures
|
|
|
• mice exhibit decreased susceptibility to pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) induced generalized tonic-clonic seizures
|
|
|
• mice exhibit lethal spontaneous seizures (generalized tonic-clonic and maximal tonic seizures)
• however, 9 week old mice show no indication of epileptic activity, indicating that mice do not show recurrent (non-lethal) spontaneous seizures, and mice do not show evidence of seizure activity during handling
|
|
|
• mice show an increase in parvalbumin-expressing interneurons in adult hippocampus
• however, dentate gyrus thickness is normal
|
astrocytosis
(
J:284762
)
|
|
• reactive astrogliosis is seen in hippocampus at P28
|
|
|
• GABAergic neurons exhibit a more hyperpolarized resting membrane potential and a lower input resistance with a higher membrane capacitance
• GABAergic neurons fire action potentials with narrower half-widths and larger afterhyperpolarizations
• however, glutamatergic neurons show no differences in passive or active membrane properties
|
|
|
• hippocampal neurons show an increase in mEPSC frequency and amplitude onto GABAergic neurons
• the average amplitude of the EPSCs evoked onto paired GABAergic neurons is increased
• however, no difference in hippocampal neuron mEPSC frequency or amplitude onto glutamatergic neurons and no differences in mIPSCs onto glutamatergic or GABAergic neurons are seen
