mortality/aging
• fewer than the expected number of mice (13.9% compared to the expected 25%) are obtained, most likely due to leaky cre recombinase expression

reproductive system
• 35% of oocytes collected at gestational day 1 exhibit an enlarged polar body, suggesting that the first meiotic division is altered
• oocytes obtained after superovulation lack polar bodies or exhibit degenerated polar bodies
• by 8 weeks of age, ovaries are completely devoid of oocytes and corpora lutea and contain oocyte-depleted follicles and vacuoles containing degenerated oocytes
• oogenesis is impaired in 8-week-old mice; ovulated oocytes appear of poor quality and fertilized oocytes are unable to develop into an embryo, suggesting that maturation of oocytes is impaired
• oocytes obtained after superovulation exhibit DNA that appears fragmented
• the number of oocytes collected after superovulation reaches only 1/3 that of oocytes collected from controls, reflecting depletion of follicles in ovaries
• ovaries appear normal at 3 weeks of age but by 8 weeks, ovaries have a smooth and juvenile appearance
• 8-week-old ovaries are made up of only few primordial and primary follicles
• corpus lutea are absent in 8-week-old mice
• at 6 and 8 weeks of age, ovaries have fewer primordial follicles
• no secondary follicles are seen at 8 weeks of age
• at 6 weeks of age, ovaries have more secondary follicles
• no antral follicles are seen at 8 weeks of age
• at 8 weeks of age, ovaries show presence of atretic oocytes
• marker analysis indicates that folliculogenesis is perturbed or arrested at the secondary stage and 8-week-old ovaries are made up of only few primordial and primary follicles
• ovaries are smaller at 6 months of age
• ovaries at 6 months of age contain cyst-like structures and the stroma compartment is composed of an undetermined somatic cell type
• while mice show normal onset of puberty and normal estrus cycles are seen until 8-10 weeks of age, after this time the estrus cycle becomes irregular with prolonged metestrus-like phases containing abundant clustered cornified cells, leukocytes, and mucus
• estrus cycle shows prolonged metestrus-like phases after 8-10 weeks of age
• females mated with wild-type males have few plugs before the age of 12 weeks and no pups over a 6-month period

• the number of oocytes collected after superovulation reaches only 1/3 that of oocytes collected from controls, reflecting depletion of follicles in ovaries

embryo
• impaired oocyte development and maturation resulting in embryonic development arrest

endocrine/exocrine glands
• ovaries appear normal at 3 weeks of age but by 8 weeks, ovaries have a smooth and juvenile appearance
• 8-week-old ovaries are made up of only few primordial and primary follicles
• corpus lutea are absent in 8-week-old mice
• at 6 and 8 weeks of age, ovaries have fewer primordial follicles

growth/size/body
• ovaries at 6 months of age contain cyst-like structures and the stroma compartment is composed of an undetermined somatic cell type
