mortality/aging
• 50% of embryos die around E7.5
|
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
hemorrhage
(
J:82844
)
• 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
