Arrest in development in Engtm1Mle/Engtm1Mle embryos

mortality/aging

growth/size/body
• appears enlarged at E9
• exhibit signs of growth retardation at E9.5 featured by a smaller head, underdeveloped nasal processes, and branchial arches
• small head at E9.5

embryo
• yolk sacs at E9-9.5 show an abnormal vascular plexus
• vitelline vessels are completely absent at E9.5 and are replaced by enlarged and leaky channels that release their content into the yolk sac cavity resulting in hemorrhage
• exhibit underdeveloped branchial arches at E9.5
• exhibit signs of growth retardation at E9.5 featured by a smaller head, underdeveloped nasal processes, and branchial arches
• E10-10.5 embryos exhibit extensive tissue necrosis
• blood islands at E9-9.5 are dilated and fused to generate abnormal and irregular channels

cardiovascular system
• collapsed vasculature
• yolk sacs at E9-9.5 show an abnormal vascular plexus
• vitelline vessels are completely absent at E9.5 and are replaced by enlarged and leaky channels that release their content into the yolk sac cavity resulting in hemorrhage
• no mesenchymal cells are detected in E9 hearts, indicating that endocardial-mesenchymal transformation does not occur
• the endocardium remains rudimentary at E9 in the primitive ventricle, whose lumen failed to close in the atrioventricular area
• some E9 embryos have an abnormally dilated endocardium in the common atrial chamber and the bulbus cordis
• appears enlarged at E9
• seen at E9.5
• seen by E9; show blood accumulating in the peritoneal cavity, indicating that embryonic vessels are fragile and susceptible to rupture
• at E10.5, heart is arrested and no longer beating and exhibits extensive necrosis

homeostasis/metabolism
• seen at E9.5

craniofacial
• exhibit underdeveloped nasal processes at E9.5
• exhibit underdeveloped branchial arches at E9.5
