Fgf15tm1Sms/Fgf15tm1Sms mice display cardiovascular defects

mortality/aging
• on a predominantly C57BL/6 genetic background, homozygotes are obtained at a slightly reduced Mendelian frequency between E13.5 and E18.5 (16.37% vs expected 25%)
• on a predominantly C57BL/6 genetic background, a significant number of homozygotes die between P0 and P7
• only about 3% of homozygotes are recovered by P21

cardiovascular system
• at E18.5, 63.2% of homozygotes exhibit failure of the aorta to wedge between the mitral and tricuspid atrioventricular valves
• at E18.5, aberrant origin of the right subclavian artery is noted in 11.1% of homozygotes
• at E18.5, most homozygotes show abnormal cardiac outflow tract alignment, such as abnormal positioning of the aorta relative to the pulmonary trunk and AV valves; however, the behavior of secondary heart field cells appears unaffected
• at E18.5, only 1 of 19 mutant hearts appears grossly normal, consistent with a small number of viable "escapers"
• notably, at E10.5 (but not earlier) homozygotes show a small but significant reduction in cell proliferation in the outflow tract myocardium, in the absence of abnormal apoptosis
• at E18.5, 26.3% of homozygotes display double outlet right ventricle
• at E18.5, 21.1% of homozygotes display an overriding aorta
• at E18.5, 5.26% of homozygotes display an atrial septal defect
• at E18.5, 5.26% of homozygotes display an atrioventricular canal defect
• at E18.5, most homozygotes show abnormal interventricular septation
• at E18.5, ~90% of homozygotes show either a membranous ventricular septal defect (VSD), a muscular VSD, in which the septal defect traverses the muscular wall of the septum, or both

hearing/vestibular/ear
N
• surviving homozygotes exhibit normal balance and auditory brainstem responses
• in addition, homozygotes display normal otic induction and otic vesicle formation at E9.5-E10.5

• on a predominantly C57BL/6 genetic background, heterozygotes are obtained at a slightly reduced Mendelian frequency between P0 and P7 (44.44% vs expected 50%)

cardiovascular system
• at E18.5, 9.1% of heterozygotes display an overriding aorta; however, no aortic arch patterning defects are observed
• at E18.5, 18.2% of heterozygotes exhibit muscular and membranous ventricular septal defects

embryo
• at E12.5, homozygotes exhibit successful septation of the distal outflow tract; however, the number of NCCs contributing to the proximal outflow tract is significantly reduced
• at E9.5, cardiac NCCs migrate to the developing caudal pharyngeal arches of mutant embryos in numbers comparable to those of wild-type embryos; however, at E11.5, NCCs fail to invaginate on the right side of the proximal aortic sac at the level of its connection with the 6th aortic arch arteries
• as a result, the conotruncal cushions remain oriented laterally relative to one another
