Severe anomalies in the urogenital system in Wnt4tm2(EGFP/cre)Svo/Wnt4tm1Svo mice

renal/urinary system
• some mice exhibit occasional glomerula and nephron structures
• mesenchyme in the developing kidney remains undifferentiated compared to in wild-type mice
• at E18.5

reproductive system
• ovaries remain are not encapsulated
• ovaries remain round and are not encapsulated unlike in wild-type mice
• female mice exhibit partial sex reversal with persistent Wolffian duct and failure of Mullerian duct development unlike in wild-type mice

endocrine/exocrine glands
• ovaries remain are not encapsulated
• ovaries remain round and are not encapsulated unlike in wild-type mice

mortality/aging
• die within the first 2 days after birth

renal/urinary system
• higher density of mature glomeruli in the medulla region compared to the periphery unlike in controls
• 12-16% of glomeruli become cystic
• expression analysis indicates a defect in proximal and intermediate regions of the S-shaped bodies development during tubule development
• S-shaped bodies appear less convoluted
• decrease in proliferation in comma-shaped bodies and a stronger decrease in the future proximal tubule of S-shaped bodies at E16.5
• increase in apoptosis in kidney epithelium but not stroma at E16.5
• strong increase in apoptosis in late mutant nephron tubules and a more moderate increase in S-shaped bodies
• occasional
• decrease in tubular structures
• reduction of 43.5% in mature glomeruli mutant kidneys
• higher density of mature glomeruli in the medulla region compared to the periphery unlike in controls
• medullar elongated loop of Henle tubules are not visible at P0

growth/size/body
• 12-16% of glomeruli become cystic
