Purkinje Cell Compartmentation in the Cerebellum of the Lysosomal Acid Phosphatase 2 Mutant Mouse (Nax - Naked-Ataxia Mutant Mouse)
The Acp2 gene encodes the beta subunit of lysosomal acid phosphatase, which is an isoenzyme that hydrolyzes orthophosphoric monoesters. In mice, a spontaneous mutation in Acp2 results in severe cerebellar defects. These include a reduced size, abnormal lobulation, and an apparent anterior cerebellar disorder with an absent or hypoplastic vermis. Based on differential gene expression in the cere...
متن کاملCerebellar Expression of the Neurotrophin Receptor p75 in Naked-Ataxia Mutant Mouse
Spontaneous mutation in the lysosomal acid phosphatase 2 (Acp2) mouse (nax--naked-ataxia mutant mouse) correlates with severe cerebellar defects including ataxia, reduced size and abnormal lobulation as well as Purkinje cell (Pc) degeneration. Loss of Pcs in the nax cerebellum is compartmentalized and harmonized to the classic pattern of gene expression of the cerebellum in the wild type mouse....
متن کاملStriking pattern of Purkinje cell loss in cerebellum of an ataxic mutant mouse, tottering.
Tottering mouse is an ataxic mutant that carries a mutation in a gene encoding for the apha1A subunit of P/Q-type Ca2+ channel (Cav2.1). This study revisited to examine whether a Purkinje cell loss occurred in the cerebellum of tottering mice. In tottering mice, Calbindin D-28k negative gaps were apparent in the vermis but not in the hemisphere. Calbindin D-28k immunofluorescence with DAPI stai...

in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...
Lysosomal Acid phosphatase deficiency: liver specific variant in the mouse.
The number and classes of genes responsible for the final expression of lysosomal acid phosphatase were investigated in the mouse (Mus musculus ). In mouse tissues, lysosomal acid phosphatase activity was separated by gel electrophoresis into two major zones of activity. The cathodal zone of activity in liver of the SM/J inbred strain was almost completely absent, while the anodal zone was incr...
