mortality/aging
|
• mice that survive to adulthood exhibit decreased life span
|
|
• most mice die between E17.5 and the first 12 hours after birth
• Background Sensitivity: fewer mice die on a mixed background compared with mice on a congenic C57BL/6 background
• however, mice that are detected at 12 hours exhibit normal survival to adulthood
|
|
• many mice exhibit early onset of aging symptoms (kyphosis and hepatocyte polyploidy) compared with wild-type mice
• however, mice do not exhibit alopecia
|
craniofacial
|
• in some mice
|
cleft palate
(
J:172042
)
|
• some mice exhibit palate closure defect compared with wild-type mice
|
nervous system
|
• some mice exhibit overlarge brain ventricles compared with wild-type mice
|
respiratory system
|
• some mice never initiate breathing
|
cardiovascular system
|
• in the liver, aortic arch, or umbilical artery of 3 of 8 mice at E17.5
• in the liver, aortic arch, or umbilical artery of 1 of 3 mouse at P1

hearing/vestibular/ear
|

• apoptosis and proliferation in thymocytes, primary and transformed mouse embryonic fibroblasts, and splenocytes are normal
|
polyploidy
(
J:172042
)
|
• premature onset in the hepatocytes of many mice
