Cardiovascular malformations in Rereom/Rereeyes3 embryos on a C57BL6 background

mortality/aging
• on a B6 background, mice are reported to exhibit perinatal lethality with no pups recovered at P0
• however, fetuses are found at Mendelian ratios at E15.5

cardiovascular system
• in 3 of 6 mice
• Background Sensitivity: cardiovascular malformation in 6 of 6 mice on a congenic C57BL/6 background unlike mice on a mixed background
• in the myocardium of the ventricle wall of adult mice

renal/urinary system
• in 10 of 35 mice at P0
• in 3 of 35 mice at P0

craniofacial
• at E15.5, palate shelves fail to contact each other in the midline
• at E15.5, cleft palate is detected in the midline from the anterior region to the posterior region in 80% of mice

digestive/alimentary system
• at E15.5, palate shelves fail to contact each other in the midline
• at E15.5, cleft palate is detected in the midline from the anterior region to the posterior region in 80% of mice

growth/size/body
• at E15.5, palate shelves fail to contact each other in the midline
• at E15.5, cleft palate is detected in the midline from the anterior region to the posterior region in 80% of mice

endocrine/exocrine glands
N
• mice with renal agenesis exhibit normal adrenal glands

Severe microphthalmia in Rereeyes3/Rereom mice

mortality/aging
• despite being born in Mendelian ratios, most mice die before weaning

nervous system
N
• neuron proliferation, apoptosis and maturation of granule cells are normal
• at E17.5, E18.5 and P0
• reduced surface area of the cerebral hemispheres at E17.0 and P0
• decreased NeuN+ hippocampal neurons at E18.5 in the Ammon's horn
• however, the number of NeuN+ neurons in the dentate gyrus is normal
• reduced surface area of the cerebellum at E17.0 and P0

hearing/vestibular/ear
• at P21

growth/size/body
• despite normal birth weight, mice weight less at P7 compared with wild-type mice
• body weights plateau at 6 weeks of age unlike wild-type mice

vision/eye
• unilateral or bilateral; more severe than in Rereeyes3 homozygotes

cardiovascular system
N
• mice on a mixed background exhibit normal cardiovascular morphology unlike mice on a congenic C57BL/6 background
