mortality/aging
• die within 24 hrs of birth
|
craniofacial
• at E12.5 cell proliferation is enhanced in the palate epithelium but at E13.5 proliferation is decreased and apoptosis is increased in the palate epithelium
|
• at E14.5 the shelves remain in the vertical position and fail to elevate to the position above the tongue
|
• at E18.5 anterior shelves are in a horizontal position but fail to meet at the midline; posterior shelves remain in a vertical orientation
|
• complete cleft palate
