♀ phenotype observed in females
♂ phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
lethality throughout fetal growth and development, complete penetrance ( J:48216 )
• normal ratio of homozygotes present up to E13.5 but no viable embryos after E14.5

liver/biliary system
hepatic necrosis ( J:48216 )

cellular
increased cellular sensitivity to alkylating agents ( J:48216 )
• increased susceptibility of embryo fibroblasts to cadmium and hydrogen peroxide

mortality/aging
increased susceptibility to xenobiotic induced morbidity/mortality ( J:91119 )
• exposure to cadmium was lethal for all male and 2 out of 3 female mutants after induction of cre mediated recombination compared to no male and only 1 female (out of 4) death in mutants without the cre transgene

homeostasis/metabolism
increased susceptibility to xenobiotic induced morbidity/mortality ( J:91119 )
• exposure to cadmium was lethal for all male and 2 out of 3 female mutants after induction of cre mediated recombination compared to no male and only 1 female (out of 4) death in mutants without the cre transgene
increased physiological sensitivity to xenobiotic ( J:91119 )
• cadmium exposure resulted in cell degeneration and necrosis in the liver, lung, and pancreas in all male mutants and some of the female mutants after induction of cre mediated recombination
abnormal xenobiotic pharmacokinetics ( J:91119 )
• transgenic mice after induction of cre accumulate less cadmium in the liver and kidneys compared to control transgenic mice that do not carry the cre transgene

immune system
decreased leukocyte cell number ( J:91119 )
• transgenic mice after induction of cre have one third of the number of white blood cells compared to control transgenic mice that do not carry the cre transgene
decreased lymphocyte cell number ( J:91119 )
• the lymphocyte population in particular is severely reduced in transgenic mice after induction of cre compared to control transgenic mice that do not carry the cre transgene

hematopoietic system
