N | normal phenotype |
• bilateral
(J:6686)
• central cataracts, with opacity of the nucleus and perinuclear zone
(J:9528)
|
• the granular opacity of the nucleus is surrounded by concentric, less opaque perinuclear zones
• the perinuclear layer may liquify
|

|
♀ | phenotype observed in females |
♂ | phenotype observed in males |
N | normal phenotype |
• vacuoles are observed
|
• with extracellular lens material and vacuoles in the cortical fibers

• dysplasia
|
• dysplasia

♀ | phenotype observed in females |
♂ | phenotype observed in males |
N | normal phenotype |
• all affected animals show a visible nuclear opacity
• Background Sensitivity: when heterozygous animals are derived from crosses to C3H/HeH mice, 53% of animals are affected by cataracts, showing mild diffuse opacities in the lens nucleus; when homozygous mutants are crossed to C3H/HeH mice, essentially all (98.2%) mice show the mild phenotype

|
♀ | phenotype observed in females |
♂ | phenotype observed in males |
N | normal phenotype |
• Background Sensitivity: when heterozygous animals are derived from crosses to C57BL/6 mice, only 28.5% of animals are affected by cataracts, showing mild diffuse opacities in the lens nucleus; this is likely due to incomplete penetrance of this phenotype on this background
|
|
|
♀ | phenotype observed in females |
♂ | phenotype observed in males |
N | normal phenotype |
• the lens core is shifted anteriorly and a plaque of epithelial cells is found at the anterior pole
• the lens nucleus appears separated from the outer cortex
|
• small vacuoles and swollen fiber cells are seen in various parts of the lens
|
• dense nuclear and subcortical cataracts
• opacity is more severe in homozygotes compared to heterozygotes
|
|
|
♀ | phenotype observed in females |
♂ | phenotype observed in males |
N | normal phenotype |
• the wave of cell nuclei is not as well ordered as in wild-type mice
|
• diffuse lenticular opacities that appear to contain homogeneously dispersed nucleic acids are seen
|
|
|
♀ | phenotype observed in females |
♂ | phenotype observed in males |
N | normal phenotype |
• fiber cell nuclei are only partially degraded and the wave of cell nuclei is not as well ordered as in wild-type mice
|
• dense nuclear and subcortical cataracts
• opacity is more severe in homozygotes compared to heterozygotes
|
|
|
♀ | phenotype observed in females |
♂ | phenotype observed in males |
N | normal phenotype |
• lens completely degenerates by 30 days of age
|
• lens is underdeveloped at birth
