hearing/vestibular/ear
• mice with cysts also have have rudimentary semicircular canals
• the expected flattening of the caudolateral wall is not seen at E11
• the majority of mutant mice have rudimentary canals and also cysts although the condition may not be bilateral
• a large endolymphatic space unassociated with a stria vascularis or an endolymphatic duct and sac is seen in mature mutant mice
• at E12 otic vesicles of mutant mice lacked an endolymphatic duct

cellular
• at E11 the cell cycle time of a developing otocyst is shorter than that seen in a heterozygous littermate or a CBA/J mouse
• at E11 the premitotic phase of a developing otocyst is longer than seen in a heterozygous littermate or CBA/J mouse

growth/size/body
• mice with cysts also have have rudimentary semicircular canals
