embryo
• the disruption of the anterior-posterior somite patterning in compound heterozygotes is more severed in cax homozygotes such that at embryonic day 9.5 the somitic DLL1 stripes are essentially lost, TBX18 expression domains are fuzzy and expanded, and UNCX4.1 expression stripes are irregular and scrambled

mortality/aging
• only 1 of 17 pups survived until P28
• pups failed to thrive and died within 2-3 weeks of life

growth/size/body
• at birth, pups appeared grossly normal but were already smaller than control littermates
• pups failed to thrive and by P21 were much smaller than control littermates

respiratory system
N
• at E11.5, E14.5 and E18.5, mutant lungs showed normal gross morphology and size relative to control lungs
• no defects in the branching pattern were detected when E11.5 lungs were cultured for 24 and 48 hrs
• distal epithelium differentiation (formation of alveolar sacs and type I and type II cells) remained unaffected
• normal formation of goblet cells was observed in the trachea at birth (P0)
• the distribution and number of basal cells remained normal
• by P21, isolated foci of inflammatory cells, including macrophages, were seen in the bronchiolar epithelium, unlike in control lungs
• at P7, P14 and P21, a severely attenuated airway epithelium is noted in medium-sized airways and in terminal bronchioles
• at E18.5, the respiratory epithelium was populated almost exclusively by beta-tubulin-expressing ciliated cells, unlike in control lungs where ciliated cells were interspersed with secretory Clara cells
• at E18.5, Foxj1-positive ciliated cells comprised 80-85% of the population of the airway epithelium, regardless of the airway generation, unlike in control lungs where Foxj1-expressing cells averaged 40%, 18% and 17% of epithelial cells seen in the large, medium and small airways, respectively
• at E18.5, Ki67 labeling averaged 15%, 10% and 5% of control values in large, medium and small airways, respectively, suggesting a substantial decrease in epithelial cell proliferation
• by P21, a thin metaplastic squamous epithelium, scattered cell debris and isolated macrophages were observed instead of the typical cuboidal epithelium seen in control bronchioles
• however, none of these changes were apparent at birth or at E18.5
• no secretory Clara cells were detected at E18.5 and P0, as determined by specific marker expression analysis
• however, no differences in apoptosis were noted at E14.5, E18.5 and P0 lungs

immune system
• by P21, isolated foci of inflammatory cells, including macrophages, were seen in the bronchiolar epithelium, unlike in control lungs

nervous system
• at E18.5, the number of neuroendocrine cells is significantly increased in mutant airways, as shown by Pgp9.5 immunostaining

endocrine/exocrine glands
• at E18.5, the number of neuroendocrine cells is significantly increased in mutant airways, as shown by Pgp9.5 immunostaining
