N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• die at 18-28 weeks of age

neoplasm
• beginning at 13 weeks of age, mutants develop carcinoma of the adrenal gland
• all mutants have bilateral large adrenal tumors (J:156984)
• pathological analysis indicates that tumors are consistent with adrenal neuroblastoma (J:156984)
• tumors secrete dopamine and some secrete noradrenalin or adrenaline (J:156984)
• mice exhibit tumors resembling adrenal neuroblastoma not pheochromocytoma (J:175962)

endocrine/exocrine glands
• mild hyperplasia in the adrenal medulla is seen by 5 and 9 weeks of age
• beginning at 13 weeks of age, mutants develop carcinoma of the adrenal gland

cardiovascular system
N
• mutants exhibit normal blood pressure

nervous system
• all mutants have bilateral large adrenal tumors (J:156984)
• pathological analysis indicates that tumors are consistent with adrenal neuroblastoma (J:156984)
• tumors secrete dopamine and some secrete noradrenalin or adrenaline (J:156984)
• mice exhibit tumors resembling adrenal neuroblastoma not pheochromocytoma (J:175962)
