growth/size/body

nervous system
N
• no differences are seen in the morphology of the central and peripheral nerve processes from the trigeminal, geniculate, petrose and nodose ganglia at E10.5-11.5

• approximately half of the neurons are lost from the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus at P14-16
• loss of outer hair cell innervation in the apex, middle and basal turns of the cochlea
• innervation of the vestibular compartment of the inner ear is severely compromised (J:17123)

• no nerve chalicies are found associated with type I hair cells of the vestibule (J:17123)

• greater than half of the neurons are lost from the nodose-petrosal ganglion at E18.5 (J:25566)
• in co-cultures of wild-type vestibular ganglion neurons with mutant hair cells, very few (2 of 200) wild-type neurons contact a mutant hair cell and diameter of the nerve fiber is thinner and shows less branching on the surface of the mutant hair cell than seen in all wild-type cultures
• approximately 80% of the neurons are lost from the vestibular ganglion at P14-16 (J:17123)
• vestibular neurons appear atrophic (J:17123)
