N normal phenotype
reproductive system
• anteriorization of the uterus is exacerbated compared to mice homozygous for the Hoxa mutation alone
• coiled for nearly half the length
• uteri closely resemble oviducts
• reduction of the stromal layer and an increase in luminal branching
• extremely thin
• smaller tubules which resemble those in the more anterior caput
• smaller with an extremely thin muscle layer, thinning is more severe than in mice homozygous for the Hoxa mutation alone
• smaller caudal epididymis
• significant enhancement of the anteriorization compared to mice homozygous for the Hoxa mutation alone
• extreme coiling from the epididymal junction extending posterior for approximately one-third of the length
• resembles the wild-type caudal epididymis with thinner muscle and stromal layers
