Abnormal phenotypes in skin and hair of Traf6tm1Jino/Traf6tm1Jino mice

mortality/aging
• death between 17 and 19 days of age
• homozygous mice represented only 12% of offspring

craniofacial
• indicative of osteopetrosis

growth/size/body
• indicative of osteopetrosis
• 30% to 50% weight reduction at time of death relative to controls
• mice were smaller than littermates by 6 days of age

hematopoietic system
• osteoclast precursor cells were unable to differentiate to functional osteoclasts in response to osteoclast differentiation factor
• reduction of the relative number of immature B cells in bone marrow
• normal ratio of proB to preB cells
• normal thymocyte development

immune system
• osteoclast precursor cells were unable to differentiate to functional osteoclasts in response to osteoclast differentiation factor
• reduction of the relative number of immature B cells in bone marrow
• normal ratio of proB to preB cells
• normal thymocyte development
• absence of mesenteric, mandibular, inguinal, axillary, and para-aortic lymph nodes

skeleton
• osteoclast precursor cells were unable to differentiate to functional osteoclasts in response to osteoclast differentiation factor
• indicative of osteopetrosis

endocrine/exocrine glands
• formation of sebaceous glands is severely impaired, including reduced size of anal glands
• reduced size of anal glands
• formation is impaired
• formation is impaired
• no sweat glands are found in the palmar skin of 8 day old mutants

limbs/digits/tail
• no sweat glands are found in the palmar skin of 8 day old mutants
• distinctive kink near the tip of the tail

pigmentation
• skin is lighter in color than wild-type in the first few days after birth, however it gradually becomes pigmented

vision/eye
• formation is impaired

reproductive system
• formation is impaired

renal/urinary system
• formation is impaired

integument
• formation of sebaceous glands is severely impaired, including reduced size of anal glands
• reduced size of anal glands
• formation is impaired
• formation is impaired
• no sweat glands are found in the palmar skin of 8 day old mutants
• mutants have a single type of pelage hairs, which has two or three rows of air cells and many constrictions; based on time of hair follicle formation, this hair type is not guard hair but may be abnormal awl hairs
• focal alopecia behind the ears and alopecia of the tail
• no guard hair follicles are seen in juvenile mutants
• from E14 to E17, mutants have no hair follicle buds and after E18, hair follicles are detected on the belly but are absent in the dorsal region
• no pigmented hair follicles are seen in the dorsal skin at 1 day of age, however the numbers of developing small hair follicles without melanocytes is comparable with controls
• homozygotes have more translucent skin than controls and appear similar to albino neonates
• skin is lighter in color than wild-type in the first few days after birth, however it gradually becomes pigmented

cellular
• osteoclast precursor cells were unable to differentiate to functional osteoclasts in response to osteoclast differentiation factor
