Mouse lines carrying:
Hoxb8tm1.1Jdes mutation (0 available); any Hoxb8 mutation (8 available)
phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
skeleton
• often a reduced number of segments
• in 33% of mice, T1 and T2 ribs fused before attachment to sternum or attach at the same point in some mice
• unilateral shift in rib attachments in some mice
• various rib abnormalities
• C7 to C6 transformation in some instances

nervous system
• 2nd spinal ganglion (C2) abnormal - degeneration by E12.5 affecting shape and position
• all mice exhibit abnormal rostral and caudal left side C2 spinal ganglion
• 4 of 5 and 3 of 5 mice exhibit abnormal rostral and caudal moieties, respectively, of the right side of the C2 spinal ganglion

growth/size/body
• normal size at birth but growth lagged subsequently
• however, growth recovers after weaning

behavior/neurological
• both fore and hind limbs
• stretch limbs and then pull them back toward middle of body
• hind limbs are raised higher than normal while walking

integument
• develop on the back in about 1/3 of mice during life
• can be large wounds
• sometimes extend into deeper tissues

N normal phenotype
nervous system
• 4 of 4 mice exhibit abnormal rostral moiety of the left side of the C2 spinal ganglion
• 3 of 4 mice exhibit abnormal rostral moiety of the right side of the C2 spinal ganglion
• mice exhibit degeneration of the C2 spinal ganglion unlike in wild-type mice
• the C2 ganglia is abnormal in shape and position
• one mouse lacked the venral ramus of the second spinal nerve while it is thinner in other mice compared to in wild-type mice

skeleton
• in 6% of mice, rib to sternum attachment points exhibit defects ranging from unilateral inversion of the point of attachment of T1 and T2 to unilateral shifts of the points of attachments of T1 to T5 unlike in wild-type mice
