Description
Mice homozygous for the reeler (Relnrl) mutation exhibit an ataxic gait, dystonic posture and tremors starting around 2 weeks of age. These mutants are incapable of maintaining their hindquarters upright and often fall over during locomotor activity. Moreover, viability and fertility are greatly reduced, especially when the gene is carried on an inbred genetic background. Heterozygotes are visually indistinguishable from wildtype controls. Neuropathies characteristic of Relnrl/Relnrl mutants include a failure of neuronal layer formation in laminated brain regions during development. Neuronal positioning is abnormal within cerebellar, cerebral and hippocampal cortices. The behavioral phenotype is primarily attributed to the severe hypoplasia of the cerebellum, which lacks foliation. Here, there are reduced numbers of granule and Purkinje cells and these cells are aberrantly dispersed among the layers. In the Reln-deficient neocortex, neurons normally destined to migrate past the subplate remain confined to deeper nuclei, thus ablating normal cortical layer formation. Similarly, pyramidal and granule cells of the developing hippocampus are scattered throughout the hippocampal tracts causing gross disorganization. RELN is required for normal spinal cord formation since migration of sympathetic preganglionic neurons in the intermediolateral column becomes disrupted in developing Relnrl/Relnrl mice. While somatic motor neurons and cholinergic interneurons are positioned normally in the Relnrl/Relnrl spinal cord, parasympathetic and sympathetic preganglionic neurons migrate medially past their normal destinations, indicating that RELN may act in a cell-specific manner. Neurons are also found abnormally positioned in the facial nucleus, inferior olivary complex, and mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus of affected reeler mutants. A RELN deficiency additionally results in an alteration in the structure and function of retinal synaptic circuitry. There is a reduction in the number of rod bipolar cells and physiologic responsiveness is compromised. Specifically, electroretinography analysis demonstrated a reduction in rod b-wave amplitudes. RELN may also play a role in the development of immune function since T-cell and macrophage function are suppressed in Relnrl/Relnrl mutants. Taken together, the data suggest that RELN functions in the extracellular matrix as a patterning signal for postmitotic neuronal migration along radial glial cell pathways. It may alternatively function to modulate neuron-neuron adhesivity and/or stability. Severe defects in neuronal cell migration underlie general lissencephalic disorders that affect humans. Therefore, the reeler mice may serve as a murine model for such neuronal ectopia disorders. Additionally, mice heterozygous for the Relnrl mutation are currently being pursued as a model for dopamine-related pathophysiological disorders such as schizophrenia. These Relnrl/+ mice exhibit a reduction in 1) the number of tryrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive cell bodies, 2) tyrosine hydroxylase and dopamine transporter immunoreactivity, 3) tyrosine hydroxylase and D2 dopamine receptor mRNA levels in the mesolimbic dopamine system, and 4) oxytocin receptors in the piriform cortex, neocortex, retrosplenial cortex and certain regions of the hippocampus (reviewed by Rice and Curran, 2001, D'Arcangelo and Curran, 1998, and Hatten, 1999; Falconer, 1951; Soriano et al., 1997; Hunter-Schaedle, 1997; Caviness and Rakic, 1978; Caviness, 1982; Caviness et al., 1972; Rice et al., 2001; Yip et al., 2000; Phelps et al., 2002; Ballmaier et al., 2002; Liu et al., 2005).

Gene & Allele Information

 
Allele Symbol Relnrl
Allele Name reeler
Allele Type Spontaneous
Common Name(s) rl; rl-; rlJ;
Strain of Origin"snowy-bellied" stock and unspecified inbred strain
Gene Symbol and Name Reln, reelin
Chromosome 5
Gene Common Name(s) PRO1598; RL; Reelen; reeler; rl;
General Note Relnrl, reeler, recessive. The reeler mutation was identified by Falconer (J:13038) as a spontaneous mutation in a mildly inbred stock. Reeler homozygotes are unable to keep their hindquarters upright and frequently fall over on their sides when walking or running. Viability and fertility are much reduced, particularly when the gene is on an inbred genetic background, but viability is greatly improved on a hybrid background, and an occasional female or rarely a male may breed (J:5312). Healthyreeler mice have fairly normal behavior except for difficulties in locomotion (J:5359). The neuropathology of Relnrl/Relnrl mice has been studied very extensively. These studies were summarized and critically reviewed by Goffinet (J:12281). Briefly, the cerebellum is greatly reduced in size, and the typical organization and lamination of the cerebellar cortex, the cerebral cortex, and the hippocampus are altered. Abnormal arrangement of neurons is also seen in other brain structures. Autoradiographic studies of development of the cerebral cortex in reelers have shown that the different classes of neurons take their origin from the ependymal layer at the normal time but migrate abnormally and come to rest in abnormal relations to each other (J:12728). The earliest cortical neurons may be overly adhesive and may block migration of later neurons (J:26896). The abnormal arrangement of neurons in other parts of the brain is the result of a similar abnormal pattern of migration. In spite of abnormal location of the neurons and also their greatly reduced number in the cerebellum, relatively normal cell connections are established. Chimeras produced by fusion between Relnrl/Relnrl and +/+ embryos indicated that factorsextrinsic to the abnormally positioned Purkinje cells were defective in reeler (J:15345).
Molecular Note This allele comprises, minimally, a 150 kb deletion between D5Mit61 and D5Mit72. [MGI Ref ID J:24458]

Genotyping

Genotyping Information

At The Jackson Laboratory, we use the combination of breeding scheme and phenotype to maintain our B6C3Fe a/a Relnrl/J colony.

1) Relnrl/Relnrl x B6C3FeF1/J a/a to generate obligate heterozygotes (Relnrl/+).

2) Relnrl/+ x Relnrl/+ to generate homozygotes, which are identified based on their phenotype: ataxic gait, dystonic posture and tremors.

Supply Details

Standard SupplyRepository-Live. A collection of over 1000 strains maintained as live colonies. Individual colonies are sized to meet current customer demand. Delivery for orders of 10 mice or less ranges on average from one to eight weeks; mice are generally shipped between four to six weeks of age with a maximum shipping age of approximately nine weeks. Colony sizes do not generally support stringent age specifications for large volumes of mice; however custom orders and larger quantities of mice are easily arranged. Estimated ship dates for all orders provided within two business days following order placement.

The Jackson Laboratory's Genotype Promise

The Jackson Laboratory has rigorous genetic quality control and mutant gene genotyping programs to ensure the genetic background of JAX® Mice strains as well as the genotypes of strains with identified molecular mutations. JAX® Mice strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. However, the phenotype of each strain may not be fully characterized and/or captured in the strain data sheets. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that JAX® Mice will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of mice to determine suitability for your particular project.
