mortality/aging
• die by E12
|
cardiovascular system
• thin and well-dilated vessels at E11.5, however did not observe the collapsed or missing anterior cardinal veins displayed by Nr2f2 null mice
• cell layers that separated the artery and vein were greatly reduced at E11.5
|
• observed budding hematopoietic cell clusters within veins in several regions, including the head vein, the cardinal vein, and the umbilical vein and veins expressed arterial markers Nrp1 (NP-1) and Notch signaling molecules, that were never observed in wildtype veins, suggesting that veins acquire arterial characteristics

hemorrhage
(

)
• exhibit widespread hemorrhage at E11.5
