immune system
• 16% of adult mutants developed an inflammation of the ear that might have been caused by repeated detachment of the epidermis

hearing/vestibular/ear
• 16% of adult mutants developed an inflammation of the ear that might have been caused by repeated detachment of the epidermis

integument
• some areas of the skin had basal keratinocytes lacking hemidesmosomes that had detached from the dermis, however the regions of the skin where adhesion of the epidermis to the dermis is not compromised, keratinocytes were normal
• skin from newborn mutants exhibited small blisters in some areas of the epithelium, however organization of the skin, epidermal differentiation, epidermal proliferation, epidermal survival and formation of hair follicles and their epidermal branching was normal
