• 4 of 6 male mice sire 1 to 3 litters before becoming infertile unlike wild-type mice

reproductive system
N
• Background Sensitivity: on a congenic C57BL/6J background, meiosis progression is normal unlike on a mixed 129/Sv and C57BL/6 background
• mice exhibit an age-dependent loss of spermatogonia unlike wild-type mice
• at 9 months, 26% of seminiferous tubules lack germ cells unlike in wild-type mice
• the percentage of motile sperm is decreased compared to in wild-type mice
• smaller in diameter
• 30% at 2 months
• 4 of 6 male mice sire 1 to 3 litters before becoming infertile unlike wild-type mice
• impaired at 2.5 months of age
• epididymides contain half the number of sperm as in wild-type mice
• from male mice
• 2 of 6 males are sterile
• 4 of 6 male mice sire 1 to 3 litters before becoming infertile unlike wild-type mice

endocrine/exocrine glands

• female mice exhibit normal fertility
• anaphase cells exhibit chromosome segregation is chaotic unlike in wild-type mice
• Background Sensitivity: on a mixed 129/Sv and C57BL/6 background, progression of meiosis is impaired unlike on a congenic C57BL/6J background
• however, the number of chromosome crossover sites is normal
• in males with small testes
• at Stage XII of spermatogenesis in one third of mice
• in 29% of mice
• one third of male mice are infertile unlike wild-type mice
• however, remaining mice exhibit normal fertility
