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
|
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

renal/urinary system
|
• enlarged, more obvious at E15.5 than at P0
|
growth/size/body
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
|
|
• 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
