mortality/aging
• survive longer than germ line null mice
• survive until E8.5

embryo
• in the mesoderm and basal regions of the epiblast at E7.5
• at E6.5 and E7.5, cell death is increased in the anterior half of the embryo compared to the posterior half
• expression analysis indicates organization of midline structures is abnormal
• the midline is broad at E8.5
• mesoderm cells are specified but migration away from the primitive streak is impaired
• mesodermal cells are round, with just a few short protrusions
• the embryonic region is smaller compared to control littermates from E7.5 onwards
• expression analysis indicates the notochordal plate is wider and shorter at E7.75
• the neural plate is present but fails to initiate neural tube closure
• during epithelial to mesenchymal transition in the primitive streak breakdown of the basement membrane appears somewhat disrupted with large laminin aggregates seen on nascent mesodermal cells
• accumulation of T expressing cells in the primitive streak indicating an impairment in migration of cells away from the streak
• node cells are specified but fail to coalesce to form a normal node
• properly organized somites do not form

cellular
• cultured cells from E7.5 embryos fail to adhere to either fibronectin or Matrigel matrices
• in the mesoderm and basal regions of the epiblast at E7.5
• at E6.5 and E7.5, cell death is increased in the anterior half of the embryo compared to the posterior half
• decrease in the mitotic index in E7.5 embryos

cardiovascular system

growth/size/body
• the embryonic region is smaller compared to control littermates from E7.5 onwards

nervous system
• the neural plate is present but fails to initiate neural tube closure

mortality/aging
• survive longer than germ line null mice, up to E8.25

embryo
• migration of anterior visceral endoderm cells is disrupted
• defect in migration is not as severe as in germ line null mice probably due to the timing of cre expression
• expression analysis indicates a defect in the initial specification of the AP axis in most embryos
• constriction at the boundary between embryonic and extraembryonic regions
• visceral endoderm cells fail to form a border around the midline structures

craniofacial
• abnormal headfolds at E7.5

cellular
• migration of anterior visceral endoderm cells is disrupted
• defect in migration is not as severe as in germ line null mice probably due to the timing of cre expression
