E9.5 Arpc1aem1(IMPC)J/Arpc1aem1(IMPC)J embryos have abnormal head shape, sometimes with incomplete cranial neural tube closure, and about half have branchial arch/pouch abnormalities and abnormal cardiac development. E10.5 embryos are dysmorphic or dying.

cardiovascular system
• at E9.5, approximately half of homozygous embryos show abnormal cardiac development
• at E10.5

craniofacial
IMPC - JAX (J:211773)
MGI
• at E9.5, almost half of homozygous embryos exhibit branchial arch/pouch abnormalities (J:374598)
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos exhibit an abnormal head shape

embryo
• homozygous embryos are normal at E8.5 but either dying or severely dysmorphic by E10.5
• however, germ layer patterning is normal at E9.5 and E10.5
IMPC - JAX (J:211773)
MGI
• at E9.5, almost half of homozygous embryos exhibit branchial arch/pouch abnormalities (J:374598)
• by E9.5, a minority of homozygous embryos exhibit incomplete closure of the cranial neural tube
• at E9.5, almost half of homozygous embryos exhibit branchial arch/pouch abnormalities
• at E10.5, placentas exhibit multiple labyrinth zone defects
• at E10.5, the Tfeb+ labyrinth trophoblast layer is markedly reduced
• at E10.5, placentas exhibit an expanded Tpbpa+ (trophoblast specific protein alpha-positive) spongiotrophoblast layer
• at E9.5, abnormal cardiac development is often accompanied by yolk sac defects
• placentas are properly developed at E9.5 but show multiple defects at E10.5
• at E10.5, chorioallantoic branching is nearly absent, as Gcm1 (glial cells missing homolog 1) expression is sparse and remains at the chorioallantoic interface

growth/size/body
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos exhibit an abnormal head shape

homeostasis/metabolism
• at E10.5

mortality/aging
• homozygous embryos are present in expected Mendelian ratios at E8.5 and E9.5 but absent at E12.5; all homozygous embryos are dying or severely dysmorphic at E10.5

nervous system
• by E9.5, a minority of homozygous embryos exhibit incomplete closure of the cranial neural tube
