skeleton
• incisors and molars displayed a wide spectrum of defects
• mice systematically exhibited small and malformed incisors
• very shallow cusps
• often yellowish and dull color
• areas with no cell differentiation denoting an arrest or delay in tooth development
• continued cell proliferation, mainly in the epithelial root sheath
• disorganized enamel knot showing no apoptosis during embryonic teeth development resulting in additional new dental buds
• lack of clear and regular layers of dentine and enamel between well-defined ameloblasts and odontoblasts
• atypical with engorged aspect
• dentin and enamel were either absent or present in thin irregular layers
• dentin and enamel were either absent or present in thin irregular layers
• dentin and enamel were either absent or present in thin irregular layers

limbs/digits/tail
• mild form of syndactyly and oligodactyly are displayed in 59% of mutant mice
• mild form of syndactyly and oligodactyly are displayed in 59% of mutant mice

respiratory system
• a lower complexity of lung parenchyma in new born mutant mice resulting in very thin and smooth alveolar walls lacking any outgrowth of secondary septa

integument
• no hairs emerged from the dorsal skin around P5
• by P10, short hair tips appeared but did not develop into fur
• normal number of hair follicles are present
• most hair shafts were bent and did not reach the epidermis
• hair shaft showed multiple fractures and were twisted
• the hair shaft was often composed of discontinuous conglomerates of horny material at P1
