Ppoxem1(IMPC)J/Ppoxem1(IMPC)J embryos are small and sometimes delayed, have an abnormal head, allantois, almost always open cranial neural tube and caudal neural tube kinks, and impaired cardiac development and embryo turning.

cardiovascular system
• by E9.5, cardiac development is impaired

craniofacial
• at E8.5, the heads are almost always abnormally shaped; by E9.5, all homozygous embryos exhibit abnormal heads

embryo
• at E9.5, all homozygous embryos are unturned
IMPC - JAX (J:211773)
MGI
• at E8.5, homozygous embryos are sometimes developmentally delayed (J:374598)
• however, all three germ layers are present at E9.5 (J:374598)
• all homozygous embryos are extremely dysmorphic by E10.5
• at E8.5, homozygous embryos are always smaller than control littermates
• by E9.5, the cranial neural tube is almost always open
• by E9.5, all homozygous embryos display caudal neural tube kinks
• at E8.5, homozygous embryos are distinguishable by an abnormal allantois that appears blebby and is sometimes branched
• by E9.5, the allantois is sometimes retracted and balled up, but can also be found tenuously attached to the placenta
• at E9.5, placentas exhibit multiple labyrinth zone defects
• at E9.5, the Tfeb+ labyrinth trophoblast layer fails to expand, remaining a thin layer
• at E9.5, placentas exhibit a diminished Tpbpa+ spongiotrophoblast layer
• at E9.5, Gcm1+ chorioallantoic branching is severely impaired
• by E10.5, placental defects are more severe than at E9.5
• at E9.5, placentas exhibit an abnormal chorioallantoic interface with a reduction in allantoic mesoderm and limited interface expansion

growth/size/body
• at E8.5, the heads are almost always abnormally shaped; by E9.5, all homozygous embryos exhibit abnormal heads
IMPC - JAX (J:211773)
MGI
• at E8.5, homozygous embryos are sometimes developmentally delayed (J:374598)
• however, all three germ layers are present at E9.5 (J:374598)
• at E8.5, homozygous embryos are always smaller than control littermates

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 extremely dysmorphic by E10.5

nervous system
• by E9.5, the cranial neural tube is almost always open
• by E9.5, all homozygous embryos display caudal neural tube kinks
