Abnormal lung development in the Zfpm2tm1Sho/Zfpm2tm1Sho mouse

muscle
• at E13.5-E15.0, mutant embryos display thinning of the compact ventricular myocardium, similar to a "papyraceous phenotype"
• a striking ventricular compact layer hypoplasia is observed

mortality/aging
• mutant embryos die at midgestation between E12.5 and E15.5; some are found dead by E13.5
• at E14.5, approximately 50% of mutant embryos are necrotic and undergoing resorption

cardiovascular system
• a severely obstructed pulmonary trunk (stenosis) is observed at E12.5
• at E13.5-E15.0, mutant embryos display thinning of the compact ventricular myocardium, similar to a "papyraceous phenotype"
• a striking ventricular compact layer hypoplasia is observed
• an early developmental block prevents epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition of "transforming" epicardial cells and subsequent formation of coronary vascular plexus within the subepicardial space
• coronary vasculature is absent, despite formation of an intact epicardial layer and expression of epicardium-specific genes
• an overriding aorta is detected at E13.5-E15.0
• a common atrioventricular valve is situated between the left and right ventricles
• at E13.5, mutant atria are thinner than normal and only a few trabeculae are observed
• atrial septal defects are detected at E13.5-E15.5
• at E13.5, mutant atria are significantly dilated
• a subaortic ventricular septal defect is noted at E13.5-E15.0, as part of a complete common atrioventricular canal
• by 13.5, mutant hearts are rounder than normal, as sharp ventricular apicies are absent
• subpulmonic stenosis is detected at E13.5-E15.0
• at E13.5, mutant embryos often display peripheral hemorrhage
• however, no bleeding is noted around the heart
• by E13.5, pulsation is weaker and slower, and blood cells remain within the heart even after contraction
• at E13.5, mutant embryos display an overall appearance consistent with heart failure

respiratory system
• underdevelopment of lungs is observed at E13.5-E15, secondary to heart failure (J:62879)
• branching in unaffected lobes appears delayed by 6 - 12 hours in homozygous lung culture explants; however, all mutant lungs do develop the normal branching pattern after 5 days in culture (J:100119)
• the right lung accessory lobe fails to develop
• at E12, prior to onset of diaphragm function, mutant lungs are smaller and lack development of an accessory lobe (J:100119)

homeostasis/metabolism
• at E13.5, mutant embryos are edematous

liver/biliary system
• a smaller liver size is observed at E13.5-E15.5, secondary to heart failure

integument
• at E13.5, mutant embryos are pale
