Altered cornea morphology in Slc4a11tm1Boet/Slc4a11tm1Boet mice

renal/urinary system
• chloride excretion is increased compared to in wild-type mice
• potassium excretion is increased compared to in wild-type mice
• mice exhibit increased urinary loss of sodium over time compared with wild-type mice
• however, sodium urine concentration is normal
• magnesium excretion is increased compared to in wild-type mice

vision/eye
• thickened Descemet membrane
• the corneal endothelium is thickened with intracellular vacuolation compared to in wild-type mice
• sodium concentration is increased in the corneal endothelium compared to in wild-type mice
• loses the typical cuboidal shape of cells at the basal membrane and of flat cells at the surface unlike in wild-type mice
• sodium and chloride concentrations are increased in the corneal stroma compared to in wild-type mice
• mice exhibit an accumulation of sodium chloride crystals in the cornea unlike in wild-type mice

hearing/vestibular/ear
• contain numerous intracellular vacuolations and extracellular edemas
• endocochlear potential and steady state potential are reduced compared to in wild-type mice
• however, potassium concentrations in the scala media is normal
• as determined by brainstem auditory evoked potential

homeostasis/metabolism
• chloride excretion is increased compared to in wild-type mice
• potassium excretion is increased compared to in wild-type mice
• mice exhibit increased urinary loss of sodium over time compared with wild-type mice
• however, sodium urine concentration is normal
• magnesium excretion is increased compared to in wild-type mice

skeleton
• contain numerous intracellular vacuolations and extracellular edemas
