Abstract |
Wriggle mouse Sagami (WMS), a newly discovered BALB/C mouse strain, is characterized by its locomotor instability, abnormal gait pattern and neck wriggling. Although the growth of WMS mice is delayed, compared with normal BALB/C mice, the brain size corresponds to the relatively smaller body weight. In gross or histological examinations no local atrophy appears in the cerebrum, cerebellum, brain stem or spinal cord. The c-GMP level in the WMS cerebellum is decreased, but the c-AMP level is normal. The ataxic gait is not improved significantly by the administration of thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH). These results indicate that the mechanism inducing ataxia and abnormal gait pattern in WMS may be different from those in other genetically-determined ataxic mice, e. g., Rolling mouse Nagaya (RMN), PCD, Staggerer and Reeler. |
