mortality/aging
• mice die by E12.5
|
cardiovascular system
• severe
|
• the compact ventricular myocardium is thin unlike in wild-type mice
|
• failed to separate aortic and pulmonic valve leaflets and the aorticopulmonary septum is absent unlike in wild-type mice
|
• endocardial cushions fail to develop separate aortic and pulmonic valve leaflets
|
• mice develop a common atrioventricular canal unlike in wild-type mice
|
• hypoplasic or aplastic
|
nervous system
• mice exhibit peripheral nervous system defects
|
• at E12.5, enteric nervous system precursors fail to migrate much beyond the ileocecal junction unlike in wild-type mice and more severely than in Pds5aGt(RRM243)Byg homozygotes
|
vision/eye
small lens
(
J:148890
)
• agenesis and sometimes lens hypoplasia are observed at E11.5 and E12.5
|
• at E10.5, reduced contact between the lens placode and the optic vesicle is observed compared to in wild-type mice
|
• the peripheral sections of the lens placode are thinner than normal and have fewer cells than in wild-type mice
|
• distorted shape
|
growth/size/body
• severe
|
embryo
