General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction Inpp4a weeble mutant has a frame shift mutation in Inpp4a and is characterized by an early onset recessive cerebellar ataxia. In the Inpp4a weeble mutant, Purkinje cells are lost in a specific temporal and spatial pattern: Purkinje cells are lost at early perinatal timepoints. Prior to the appearance of climbing fibers in the developing molecular layer, the Inpp4a weeble mutant has a normal complement of Purkinje cells and they are properly positioned, degeneration and reactive gliosis are present at postnatal day 5 and progress rapidly in a defined pattern of patches. Purkinje cell loss in the Inpp4awbl mutant is due to glutamate excitotoxicity initiated by the climbing fiber, whereby Eaat4 may exert a protective effect Mus musculus
