mortality/aging
• although the expected numbers of mutants were present at birth, they were either stillborn or started dying immediately after birth

respiratory system
• cannot breathe despite the ability to open the mouth
• unable to inflate and expand lungs, despite the lungs being vascularized and structurally intact

homeostasis/metabolism

nervous system
• only partial development of the thoracic sympathetic ganglia at E12.5, with defects becoming more severe in a rostral-caudal gradient
• phrenic nerves are thinned, disorganized, and discontinuous or incomplete and they lack an apparent main nerve trunk from which smaller presynaptic branches originate
• diaphragm muscle is very poorly innervated by the phrenic nerve
