Failure to transmit disease from gray tremor mutant mice.

Abstract:

:Mice homozygous for mutant alleles at the gray tremor (gt) locus develop a marked non-intention tremor beginning at 8 days of age. Most homozygous mice die by 3 months. Homozygotes exhibit intense vacuolation of the central nervous system gray matter and vacuolation and hypomyelination of some white matter tracts. Based on neuropathological similarities with scrapie, other investigators inoculated wild-type mice with gray tremor brain homogenates to test the hypothesis of transmissibility. Published reports indicated that spongiform encephalopathy (R. L. Sidman, H. C. Kinney, and H. O. Sweet, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 82:253-257, 1985) and disease, including hind limb paralysis in NFS mice (P. M. Hoffman, R. G. Rohwer, C. MacAuley, J. A. Bilello, J. W. Hartley, and H. C. Morse III, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 84:3866-3870, 1987), were transmitted by inoculation of gt/gt brain homogenates. In our hands, however, no NFS/NCr animals inoculated intracerebrally with gt/gt or +/+ brain preparations showed any signs of disease or pathological changes in the brain. Positive transmission by other investigators may reflect the microbiological status of their donor or recipient mice.
