mortality/aging
• increased early mortality

cardiovascular system
• cerebral cavernous malformations develop as early as two months after tamoxifen treatment at 1 day of age

• additional abnormalities include capillary telangiectasias, isolated caverns and multiple back to back caverns, thrombosis, hemorrhage, formation of secondary channels
• attenuation of endothelial cells in larger secondary channels but no gaps
• foot processes are missing

nervous system
• cerebral cavernous malformations develop as early as two months after tamoxifen treatment at 1 day of age

mortality/aging
• mice die between E9-E10 from failed angiogenesis

embryo
• the first branchial arch artery of E8.5 embryos fail to form a proper lumen
• the second branchial arch artery of E8.5 embryos fail to form a proper lumen
• the third branchial arch artery of E8.5 embryos fail to form a proper lumen

cardiovascular system
• the caudal portion of the dorsal aorta becomes enlarged in 8.5 embryos
• the first branchial arch artery of E8.5 embryos fail to form a proper lumen
• the second branchial arch artery of E8.5 embryos fail to form a proper lumen
• the third branchial arch artery of E8.5 embryos fail to form a proper lumen

• the branchial arch arteries, the first essential angiogenic vessels, fail to form a stable lumen in E8.5 embryos
• the heart is not functionally connected with the vasculature, and circulation fails to initiate
• circulation is not established in E8.5 embryos

craniofacial
• the first branchial arch artery of E8.5 embryos fail to form a proper lumen
