liver/biliary system
• at E11.5, but not at E10.5, all mutant embryos show a 50-fold increase in hepatocyte apoptosis relative to wild-type controls
• at E11.5, mutant livers are smaller, consist of only one lobe, and show a 2-fold reduction in the number of hematopoietic cells
• failure of mutant livers to develop into a multi-lobular organ
• at E11.5, mutant livers are smaller than wild-type
• at E11.5, mutant livers are less densely populated than wild-type

hematopoietic system
• at E11.5, mutant livers show a 2-fold reduction in the number of hematopoietic cells relative to wild-type controls

cellular
• at E11.5, but not at E10.5, all mutant embryos show a 50-fold increase in hepatocyte apoptosis relative to wild-type controls

mortality/aging
• homozygotes die between E10.5 and E12.5, probably due to heart failure

cardiovascular system
• at E11.5, two of 3 mutant embryos display an enlarged or dilated anterior cardinal vein
• at E10.5 and E11.5, some mutant embryos display reduced trabeculation of the ventricles
• at E10.5 and E11.5, the endocardium is still present in some embryos, indicating failure to undergo epithelial-mesenchymal transformation
• at E9.5, the ventricular region has not yet divided into chambers and trabeculation of the ventricle is reduced, unlike in wild-type hearts
• at E10.5, all mutant hearts appear significantly underdeveloped
• at E10.5, all mutant hearts retain the S-shape typical of E9.5 wild-type hearts; also seen in 1 of 3 mutant hearts at E11.5
• at E11.5, some mutant hearts contain atria and ventricular chambers but show underdeveloped valvular and septal tissues and trabecula carnea

embryo
• homozygous mutant embryos are often, but not always, reduced in size
• at E9.5-E11.5, three of 12 mutant embryos show severely reduced cellularity, as reflected by the amount of extractable RNA
• at E10.5, the number of mesonephric tubules is reduced
• at E11.5, some mutant embryos display irregularity and reduced cellularity in the neural ectoderm of the telencephalon and the myelencephalon

growth/size/body
• homozygous mutant embryos are often, but not always, reduced in size
• at E9.5-E11.5, three of 12 mutant embryos show severely reduced cellularity, as reflected by the amount of extractable RNA

nervous system
• at E11.5, some mutant embryos display irregularity and reduced cellularity in the neural ectoderm of the telencephalon and the myelencephalon
• at E10.5 and E11.5, mutant cranial ganglia, including the acoustico-facialis ganglia, are reduced in size and cellularity
• at E10.5 and E11.5, mutant trigeminal ganglia are reduced in size and cellularity
• at E10.5 and E11.5, mutant spinal ganglia are reduced in size
• at E10.5 and E11.5, mutant spinal ganglia show reduced cellularity

muscle
• at E10.5 and E11.5, some mutant embryos display reduced trabeculation of the ventricles

vision/eye
• invagination of the lens vesicles is slightly delayed but normal
• invagination of the optic vesicles is slightly delayed but normal
