mortality/aging
• most progeny died within 10 days of birth
• homozygous mice represented 3% of the surviving progeny at weaning
|
cardiovascular system
• at P9, the pulmonary artery shows narrowing in mutant mice
|
• defects, including secondary ventricular hypertrophy, ventricular septal defect, overriding aorta, and pulmonic stenosis, are similar to human Tetralogy of Fallot
|
• tricuspid atresia
|
• observed in all mice examined during the prenatal and early postnatal period
• the abnormal shunting of blood between the pulmonary and systemic circulations was confirmed using a dye
|
• some animals showed a defect of the muscular septum
|
• abnormal pear-shape
|
• exhibited by mice that survived to the second postnatal week
|
• exhibited by mice that survived to the second postnatal week
|
• at E15.5, the leaflets of the left atrium pulmonic valve are fused
|
• at E15.5, the lumen of the pulmonary valve is narrow
