Analysis Tools
nervous system
|
• layering in the cerebral cortex is less defined
• statistically reduced neuronal density in layers II-VI
|
|
• layers V and VI are particularly thickened
|
|
• barrel structures in the barrel field of the S1 area are reduced
|
hematopoietic system
|
• deficiency of myeloid precursors
|
hearing/vestibular/ear
| N |
• homozygotes exhibit normal inner ear morphogenesis with no detectable abnormalities in adulthood
• in addition, homozygotes show no significant differences in hearing thresholds before and after noise-induced cochlear damage relative to wild-type littermates
|
homeostasis/metabolism
|
• wound healing is noticeably slowed but not impaired
