• contrary to previous findings (J:25284), homozygotes generated from F1 intercrosses are obtained at the expected Mendelian frequency
|
|
• homozygotes exhibit thickened intrarenal arteries and arterioles as a result of medial hyperplasia
|
|
• thickened and hyperplastic renal arteries are observed
• inflammatory cells can be seen around the renal arteries with some infiltration into the vessel wall
|
|
• homozygotes exhibit an increase in average pulse rates (676 12 beats/min) relative to wild-type (626 16 beats/min) or heterozygous mutant mice (625 8 beats/min)
|
|
• homozygotes exhibit a significantly reduced average systolic blood pressure (73.3 1.7 mm Hg) relative to wild-type (110.1 1.9 mm Hg) or heterozygous mutant mice (107.3 1.6 mm Hg)

|
|
• thickened and hyperplastic renal arteries are observed
• inflammatory cells can be seen around the renal arteries with some infiltration into the vessel wall
|
|
• following water deprivation, homozygotes display a reduction in electrolyte concentration, with a significantly lower urinary sodium to potassium ratio
|
|
• following water deprivation, homozygotes produce ~50% of the total aldosterone levels found in the urine of wild-type mice
|
|
• following water deprivation, homozygotes exhibit increased potassium excretion relative to wild-type mice
|
|
• when water is freely accessible, homozygotes exhibit a slightly lower average urine osmolarity (770 30 mOSM/kg ) relative to wild-type mice (1070 60 mOSM/kg)
• following water deprivation, homozygotes produce a higher (2x) volume of urine that is <50% as concentrated (1300 10 mOSM/kg) than that of wild-type mice (3000 300 mOSM/kg)
|
|
• regions of inflammatory infiltrate are seen at the cortical medullary junction

|
• mutant kidneys display papillary atresia
|
|
• mutant kidneys display renal papillary atrophy
|
|
• mutant kidneys display a thinned medulla
|
|
• mutant kidneys display dilated renal calyses
|
|
• homozygotes display dilation of the renal pelvis and calyces
|
|
• homozygous mutant kidneys are ~75% of the mass of wild-type kidneys
|
|
• when water is freely accessible, homozygotes show a 2-fold increase in urinary output relative to wild-type mice
|
|
• male homozygotes sire significantly smaller litters than wild-type males (3.3 1.4 vs 9.7 1.5 pups per litter, respectively)
|
 |
• male homozygotes display reduced fertility, despite normal testis histology and normal sperm number, morphology, and motility
• in contrast, female homozygotes are fertile and produce normal litter sizes
|
|
• homozygotes display significantly increased plasma creatinine levels (0.56 0.06 mg/dl) relative to wild-type mice (0.30 0.04 mg/dl)
