mortality/aging
• approximately 68% of homozygotes die before birth; surviving homozygotes are viable and fertile

cardiovascular system
• reduced cerebral vascularization with hemorrhaging during embryonic development
• histology of cerebral arteries from E13.5 homozygotes shows disrupted smooth muscle actin and hypoplasia
• histology of cerebral arteries of 5 week old homozygotes shows smooth muscle cell hyperplasia
• E13.5 cerebral vascular smooth muscle cells appear larger than normal
• varying degrees of embryonic hemorrhaging, often associated with decreased cerebral vascularization
• cerebrovascular hemorrhage and other vascular trauma found in E10.5-E14.5 embryos

muscle
• histology of cerebral arteries from E13.5 homozygotes shows disrupted smooth muscle actin and hypoplasia
• histology of cerebral arteries of 5 week old homozygotes shows smooth muscle cell hyperplasia
• E13.5 cerebral vascular smooth muscle cells appear larger than normal
• at 5 weeks of age, centrally located nuclei are found in approximately 17% of muscle fibers

nervous system
• cerebrovascular hemorrhage and other vascular trauma found in E10.5-E14.5 embryos
