mortality/aging
• approximately 55% of the heterozygous female died by day 9 with a severely runted and anemic appearance
• by day 10, surviving heterozygous females showed a striped fur and a few focal hyperkeratotic lesion
• those survived to 1 month gained weight and looked normal

liver/biliary system
• numbers of apoptotic cells in some heterozygous female mice at E12

growth/size/body
• about half the size and weight of normal siblings by 5 days after birth

behavior/neurological

adipose tissue
• lack of subcutaneous fat in day 9 heterozygous female mice

immune system
• in day 9 heterozygous female
• massive diffuse destruction of cortical lymphocytes
• the white pulp was barely discernible and lacked a marginal zone in day 9 heterozygous female spleen
• a patchy pigmentation that progressed to severe inflammation by 2 days after birth
• generalized erythematous eruption of the skin

cellular
• increased apoptosis of lymphocytes in day 9 thymus and spleen
• dispersed apoptotic keratinocytes in day 3
• large clusters of apoptotic cells in day 9 epidermis
• numbers of apoptotic cells in some heterozygous female mice at E12

hematopoietic system
• in day 9 heterozygous female
• massive diffuse destruction of cortical lymphocytes
• the bone marrow within the sternum was moderately cellular and composed almost entirely of nearly mature granulocytes in day 9 heterozygous female
• no megakaryocytes in the bone marrow within the sternum in day 9 heterozygous female
• the white pulp was barely discernible and lacked a marginal zone in day 9 heterozygous female spleen

integument

Allelic
Composition
Ikbkgtm1Mpa/Ikbkg+
Genetic
Background
involves: C57BL/6
Find Mice Using the International Mouse Strain Resource (IMSR)
Mouse lines carrying:
Ikbkgtm1Mpa mutation (0 available); any Ikbkg mutation (15 available)
phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• 19 of 22 mice die between 6-10 days of age

growth/size/body
• mice have growth restriction starting a few days after birth
• the few survivors that make it to weaning recover in weight and in general health

pigmentation
• increased numbers of phagocytes containing melanosome complexes are found in the dermis
• 3-4 day old mice have skin with areas of reduced or absent pigmentation

immune system
• 4 day old mouse skin have numerous inflammatory foci with infiltration of granulocytes into the epidermis
• this infiltration is declining by 8 days of age

integument
• apoptotic keratinocytes are found in the suprabasal layer of 8 day old epidermis
• at 6 weeks of age, increased apoptosis is extended to both basal and suprabasal keratinocyte layers but is detected only in small affected patches showing abnormal structure and increased proliferation
• 4 day old mouse skin have numerous inflammatory foci with infiltration of granulocytes into the epidermis
• this infiltration is declining by 8 days of age
• hair growth is retarded on the scaly patches of skin present on neonates
• the few survivors continue to display patches lacking hair growth
• abnormal gaps form between the keratinocytes of the suprabasal and basal layers
• keratinocytes are in loose contact with each other forming filopodia that extend into the dilated intercellular spaces
• keratinocytes in the cornified layer of 8 day old mice contains cell bodies and nuclei
• the suprabasal layer of 8 day old mice is thicker than controls
• keratinocytes in the epidermis have abnormal tonofilament structure and no desmosomes
• the epidermis of 8 day old mice is thicker than controls
• skin lacking pigmentation becomes hard, inflexible and scaly by 7 days after birth
• increased numbers of phagocytes containing melanosome complexes are found in the dermis
• 3-4 day old mice have skin with areas of reduced or absent pigmentation

cellular
• apoptotic keratinocytes are found in the suprabasal layer of 8 day old epidermis
• at 6 weeks of age, increased apoptosis is extended to both basal and suprabasal keratinocyte layers but is detected only in small affected patches showing abnormal structure and increased proliferation
