• at E15.0, no smooth muscle alpha-actin protein (SMA), an early marker of smooth muscle differentiation, is detected at any axial level of the ureter, unlike in wild-type embryos where SMA is detected in the proximal ureter

nervous system
• pronounced extension of the hindlimbs in response to handling and seizure-like behavior by the second postnatal week
• reductions of somatostatin- and parvalbumin-expressing interneurons in somatosensory cortex
• somatostatin- and Npy-expressing interneurons are also reduced in the striatum
• 10% decrease in cortical thickness at P12 (J:102950)
• animals display slightly smaller brain size than control littermates, but overall morphology of brain is relatively normal (J:147427)
• thalamus organization is disrupted in mutants based on molecular marker analysis
• reduced interneuron fate determining gene Nkx2.1 expression in progenitors of the medial ganglionic eminence (MGE) cells in S-phase
• a subtle disruption of MGE patterning indicated by reduction of Gli1 and Nkx6.2 expression is observed
• however, other aspects of MGE progenitor identity are maintained

behavior/neurological
• pronounced extension of the hindlimbs in response to handling and seizure-like behavior by the second postnatal week

mortality/aging
• mutants die shortly after birth when doxycycline is administered throughout gestation
• in the absence of doxycycline mutants are viable

respiratory system
• lung and airway malformations are seen when doxycycline exposure occurs between E0.5 and E13.5
• doxycycline exposure after E13.5 does not result in any pulmonary or extrapulmonary abnormalities
• cysts that contain neuroepithelial cells are seen in the peripheral lung tissue
• branching morphogenesis is abnormal
• lungs are hypoplastic when doxycycline is administered throughout gestation
• peripheral tubule dilation is seen after doxycycline exposure
• tracheal abnormalities are seen
• doxycycline exposure before E8.5 or after E13.5 does not result in tracheal abnormalities
• the cartilaginous rings that normal surround the trachea are malformed with incomplete rings found along the ventral midline after doxycycline exposure
• fewer cartilaginous rings are seen after doxycycline exposure

skeleton
• the cartilaginous rings that normal surround the trachea are malformed with incomplete rings found along the ventral midline after doxycycline exposure
• fewer cartilaginous rings are seen after doxycycline exposure
