Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is caused by the deficiency of alpha-L-iduronidase (IDUA), which is involved in the degradation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), such as heparan sulfate and dermatan sulfate in the lysosome. It has been reported that joint symptoms are almost universal in MPS I patients, and even in the case of attenuated disease, they are the first symptom that brings a child to medical attention. However, functional tests and biological markers have not been published for the evaluation of the limitations in joint and locomotion in animal model-mimicking MPS.
METHODS:
We generated IDUA knockout (KO) mice to observe whether they present impairment of joint function. KO mice were characterized phenotypically and tested dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry analysis (DEXA), open-field, rotarod, and grip strength.
RESULTS:
The IDUA KO mice, generated by disruption between exon 6 and exon 9, exhibited clinical and laboratory findings, such as high urinary GAGs excretion, GAGs accumulation in various tissues, and significantly increased bone mineral density (BMD) in both female and male mice in the DEXA of the femur and whole bone. Remarkably, we observed a decrease in grasp function, decreased performance in the rotarod test, and hypo-activity in the open-field test, which mimic the limitations of joint mobility and decreased motor performance in the 6-min walk test in patients with MPS I.
CONCLUSIONS:
We generated a new IDUA KO mouse, tested open field, rotarod and grip strength and demonstrated decrease in grip strength, decreased performance and hypo-activity, which may be useful for investigating therapeutic approaches, and studying the pathogenesis of joint and locomotion symptoms in MPS I.

[description_short] => Une méthode simple pour quantifier objectivement la force musculaire des rats et souris et l'effet de drogues, toxines, maladies musculaires (ex: myopathie) et neurodégénératives. Cette mesure de force est souvent employée en association avec le test de coordination motrice ROTAROD: un sujet présentant une coordination normale montrera des résultats médiocres en cas de faible force musculaire. Un must pour vos recherches sur l'activité, la coordination et le contrôle musculaire: particulièrement utile pour vos études sur les maladies de Parkinson et Huntington.
