mortality/aging
• all mice die shortly after birth

endocrine/exocrine glands
• adrenal chromaffin cells exhibit reduced TH, PNMT and chromogranin B immunoreactivity compared to in wild-type mice
• adrenal chromaffin cells fail to express sympathetic neuronal markers unlike in wild-type mice
• however, the number of chromaffin cells, volume density and granule diameter are normal

homeostasis/metabolism

hematopoietic system
• E14.5 fetal liver cultures fail to exhibit outgrowths of erythroid progenitor cells as do wild-type livers

nervous system
• adrenal chromaffin cells exhibit reduced TH, PNMT and chromogranin B immunoreactivity compared to in wild-type mice

• relative to wild-type, mice do not display differences in cartilage or calcified tissue; mice show similar bone mineral densities as wild-type and have no gross alterations in growth plate dimension or amount of calcified bone
• osteoblast differentiation is unaffected by this mutation
• unlike wild-type cells, differentiation is not repressed by dexamethasone
• proliferation of preconfluent preosteoblasts from neonatal calvaria is lower in culture compared to wild-type cells; numbers of postconfluential cells are not affected by dexamethasone treatment in contrast to reduced numbers of wild-type cells in culture
• treatment with dexamethasone does not affect mutant cells but completely inhibits osteoblast proliferation in cultures of wild-type cells; apoptosis is not induced with dexamethasone treatment in contrast to wild-type cultures
• alkaline phosphatase activity and matrix mineralization in unaffected by dexamethasone treatment in mutants in contrast to the inhibition observed in wild-type

• the dose-response curve of glucocorticoid induced T lymphocyte apoptosis is shifted to higher concentrations compared to in wild-type mice
