mortality/aging
• most homozygotes that survived past weaning died between days 50 and 90 due to wasting
• 33% died from wasting before weaning

reproductive system

skeleton
• dysmorphic lower frontal regions of the calvarium due to delayed ossification of calvarial bones
• larger fontanelles
• interparietal bone was displaced and ossification of the interparietal bone was incomplete by day 15 with the fibrous vestige of the cartilage primordium remaining rather than disappearing as in wild-type
• only the outer bony plate forms in parietal bones, whereas the inner plate is replaced by remnants of the parietal cartilage anlage (J:86538)
• gradually developed orbital protrusions that were obvious at day 5
• dome-shaped skill with bulging parietal and interparietal regions that was obvious at day 5
• fibrosis, reduced cell proliferation and structural disorganization of the periosteal osteogenic layer of long bones was seen in 40 day or older homozygous null mice
• limb bones appeared shorter and grew to approximately 65% of the length in controls by day 45
• progressively developed hyperkyphosis
• progressively developed hyperlordosis
• became increasingly apparent as a result of increased bone resorption as well as diminished bone formation
• reduced trabecular bone in the spongiosa and a thinner cortex
• severely reduced bone mass in 40 day or older homozygous null mice
• complete proteoglycan depletion, numerous empty chondroctye lacunae, and apoptosis of residual chondrocytes are seen in Meckel's cartilage vestiges, indicating impaired remodeling of the posterior portion of Meckel's cartilage into bone and ligament
• reduced chondrocyte proliferation in growth plates of 39-day old, but not 10 day old, homozygous null mice (J:57969)
• empty chondrocyte lacunae are seen in cartilage vestiges (ghost cartilage) and remaining chondrocytes undergo apoptosis (J:86538)
• apoptotic calvarial chondrocytes are randomly distributed within the cartilage (J:86538)
• joints show ghost (empty lacunae) cartilages at sites of transition between different articular tissue
• incomplete suture closure

• vestiges of embryonic cranial cartilages that precede membranous bone persist on the inner aspect of the skull up to 62 days of age
• developed severe generalized arthritis, with all joints showing overgrowth of a hypercellular, vascularized synovial tissue and destruction of articular cartilage, resulting in ankylosis
• bone formation was drastically reduced and vascular canals that invade uncalcified epiphyseal cartilage did not form
• parietal cartilage was never removed and was gradually transformed into an increasingly fibrotic and acellular vestige on the inner aspect of the underdeveloped parietal/interparietal bone, however endochondral ossification of the cartilage precursor of the pars petrosa occurred normally
• delayed membranous ossification of calvarial bones and delayed postnatal development of the epiphyseal (secondary) ossification centers
• impaired remodeling of unmineralized cartilage into cortical bone resulting in the retention of unmineralized portions of articular cartilages that would normally undergo resorption during growth
• excessive osteoclastic resorption in all bones of mice aged 40 days or older (J:57969)
• although 62 day old mutants exhibit osteoclastic resorption of the parietal bone outer bony plate, the cartilage vestige occupying the region of the missing inner bony plate remains undegraded (J:86538)
