mortality/aging
• cardiac arrest at E10.5 with congested peripheral tissues, followed by autolysis at E11.5

cardiovascular system
• the appearance of junctional membrane complexes with a 12nm gap size was reduced to 10% of the control value; the length of the complex was also significantly shorter
|
• calcium imaging analysis on mutant hearts showed that calcium transients were varied in amplitude and were not synchronized with heartbeats in contrast to control hearts where transients in spontaneous oscillations corresponding to rhythmic contractions were nearly constant
|
• weak, irregular heartbeat at E9.5
