cardiovascular system
• form a smaller central conduction system, with smaller atrioventricular node and His bundle
• the number of cells in the conduction system is reduced by approximately half
• hypocellularity of the peripheral Purkinje network
• smaller atrioventricular node
• defects in in the atrioventricular node, His bundle, and intraventricular conduction
• exhibit similar conduction and electrophysiologic abnormalities as heterozygous Nkx2-5tm1Siz mice

muscle
