phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• mice exhibit early lethality beginning in the third postnatal week and endpoint of survival is P28

growth/size/body
• mice show reduced postnatal growth

nervous system
• cerebral cortex is thinner at P28, with a 64.8% reduction compared to 10.4% reduction in single conditional Tor1a homozygous mutant mice
• mice exhibit reductions of CUX1+ (cortical layer II-IV) and CTIP2+ (cortical layer V-VI) cortical neurons in sensorimotor cortex
• however, no overt brain structural abnormalities are seen at birth, cortical thickness is normal at birth, and the number of CTIP2+ (cortical layer V-VI) cortical neurons are not different at P0
• mice exhibit gliosis in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus at P28
• mice exhibit cell loss in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus at P28
