medicine | characterization of mutant V674G. Thyroid glands of mutant mice are goitrous and contain few normal follicles, anterior pituitaries are dysplastic. Serum thyroxine in homozygotes is about one-tenth the level of controls.. the weight of adult mutant mice is approximately half that of littermate controls, and serum IGF-I is reduced. The cochleae of mutant mice exhibit abnormalities characteristic of hypothyroidism, including a delayed formation of the inner sulcus and tunnel of Corti and an abnormally thickened tectorial membrane. Hearing thresholds of adult mutant mice are on average 50-60 decibels above those of controls | Mus musculus |
