cardiovascular system
|
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos exhibit an abnormal heart shape
|
craniofacial
|
• at E8.5, over half of homozygous embryos have an abnormal head shape; by E9.5, most exhibit abnormally shaped heads
|
digestive/alimentary system
|
• when the notochord is absent at E8.5, the gut tube is abnormally proximal to the neural tube
|
embryo
| N |
• at E9.5, placentas are properly developed and comparable to those in control littermates
|
|
IMPC - JAX
|
|
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos exhibit failure of turning
|
|
• by E9.5, all homozygous embryos are easily distinguishable from their control littermates
• however, homozygous embryos are normal at E7.5
|
|
• at E8.5 and E9.5, all homozygous embryos lack a properly patterned ventral neural tube, as indicated by the absence of FOXA2 in the floorplate
|
|
• at E8.5 and E9.5, all homozygous embryos show absence of FOXA2 in the floorplate
|
|
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos exhibit a laterally splayed and open cranial neural tube
|
|
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos show a kinked caudal neural tube
|
|
• at E8.5, the notochord is absent in some portions of the embryo
|
growth/size/body
|
• at E8.5, over half of homozygous embryos have an abnormal head shape; by E9.5, most exhibit abnormally shaped heads
|
homeostasis/metabolism
|
• by E9.5, the heart is often edematous
|
mortality/aging
|
IMPC - JAX
|
|
IMPC - JAX
|
|
• homozygous embryos are present in Mendelian ratios at E7.5-E9.5 but absent at E12.5
|
nervous system
|
