Amottm1Bhr mutation (0 available); any Amot mutation (11 available)
phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• 75% of mutant mice die between E11 and E11.5

growth/size/body
• embryos are 85% the size of control littermates at E10.5

embryo
• E10.5 yolk sacs exhibit abnormal vascular patterning, containing vessels with increased diameter and some vessels that are anastomosed to form lagoon-like structures
• embryos are 85% the size of control littermates at E10.5
• placentas are 75% the size of control littermate placentas at E10.5, however the establishment of the placental layers and function are normal

cardiovascular system
• insufficient capillary formation in the somitic region
• mutants exhibit a less structured network of blood vessels in the brain that form lagoon-like structures with an accumulation of erythrocytes
• branching is not affected, however vessel diameter in the brain is twice the size of wild-type
• severe vascular insufficiency in the intersomitic region; the interconnecting paraneural blood vessels are missing and the remaining vessels are dilated and shorter
• E10.5 yolk sacs exhibit abnormal vascular patterning, containing vessels with increased diameter and some vessels that are anastomosed to form lagoon-like structures
• dilated vessels in the brain and yolk sac

nervous system
• mutants exhibit a less structured network of blood vessels in the brain that form lagoon-like structures with an accumulation of erythrocytes
• branching is not affected, however vessel diameter in the brain is twice the size of wild-type

mortality/aging

growth/size/body
• embryos are developmentally delayed by about 6 hours at E7.5 and sometimes up to 12 hours or more at E8

embryo
• visceral endoderm cell migration at the anterior embryonic/extra-embryonic junction is abnormal; although distal-to-proximal migration is observed, the lateral migration of cells is greatly reduced
• ~ 90% of embryos at E7.5 have excessive folds at the cranial limiting furrow region
• the cranial limiting furrow region contains more than two cell layers and is disorganized
• embryos are developmentally delayed by about 6 hours at E7.5 and sometimes up to 12 hours or more at E8
• visceral endoderm accumulates at the cranial limiting furrow of E7.5 mutants

cardiovascular system
• 62% of embryos are hemorrhagic at E7.5

cellular
• visceral endoderm cell migration at the anterior embryonic/extra-embryonic junction is abnormal; although distal-to-proximal migration is observed, the lateral migration of cells is greatly reduced
