liver/biliary system
• bile duct proliferation and ectasia accompanied by fibrosis of the portal tracts
• however, extrahepatic bile duct and gallbladder morphology are not affected
• severe malformation of the ductal plate with retention of the embryonic architecture of bile ducts surrounding the portal veins
• ductal plate malformation is present at E16.5 starting first at the portal tracts located near the porta hepaticae and expanding to include the peripheral portal tracts in newborns
• variable progressive polycystic transformation of the liver
• cystic liver degeneration varies from multiple small cysts to sometimes huge liver cysts
• cysts are lined with a single layer of normally differentiated cuboidal epithelial cells with well formed microvilli and cell junctions and normal numbers of mitochondria
• severe malformation of the ductal plate with retention of the embryonic architecture of bile ducts surrounding the portal veins
• ductal plate malformation is present at E16.5 starting first at the portal tracts located near the porta hepaticae and expanding to include the peripheral portal tracts in newborns
• progressive portal fibrosis
• however, only in mice with end-stage cystic transformation is any abnormality in the liver parenchyme detected

renal/urinary system
N
• no polycystic transformation or impairment of kidney function is seen unlike in human patients with mutations in PKHD1

reproductive system
N
• at 5 weeks of age mice are fertile

endocrine/exocrine glands
• bile duct proliferation and ectasia accompanied by fibrosis of the portal tracts
• however, extrahepatic bile duct and gallbladder morphology are not affected
• severe malformation of the ductal plate with retention of the embryonic architecture of bile ducts surrounding the portal veins
• ductal plate malformation is present at E16.5 starting first at the portal tracts located near the porta hepaticae and expanding to include the peripheral portal tracts in newborns

growth/size/body
• variable progressive polycystic transformation of the liver
• cystic liver degeneration varies from multiple small cysts to sometimes huge liver cysts
• cysts are lined with a single layer of normally differentiated cuboidal epithelial cells with well formed microvilli and cell junctions and normal numbers of mitochondria
