Progressive motor impairment in GLAST-/- mice. (A) Hind limb base width of 6-week and 6-month old animals. (B) Number of hind-limb slips 6-week and 6-month old mice made when crossing narrow, elevated beam. C, Latency of 6-week old animals to fall from rotarod at 3-, 5- and 10-rpm. (D) Latency of 7.5- and 10-month old WT and GLAST-/- animals to fall from rotarod at 3-rpm. All data are means ± SEM. N = 14 (WT), 14 (young GLAST-/-), 7 (old GLAST-/-) in all panels. E, Immunoblot analyses of cerebellar homogenates from 6-week old WT, GLAST+/- and GLAST-/- animals.
