vision/eye
• mice have much more aggressive, invasive form of retinoblastoma than Trp53-sufficient compound mutants, but onset is delayed compared to that observed in Rbl1 homozygous compound mutants
• tumor size varies with age and genotype
• mice show rapid filling of the vitreal cavity with densely packed tumor cells and rosettes; in the tumors, there is an overabundance of stage II retinoblastoma cells
• near outer surface of retina near tumor origin site, there are regions of plexus with synaptic densities and synaptic vesicles, indistinguishable from the Rb1;Rbl1 mutants that are wild-type for Trp53
|
• significant disruptions in retinal morphology are observed by P12 to 13
