mortality/aging
• mice died at various time points after weaning with no mice surviving past 13 weeks of age
|
growth/size/body
hematopoietic system
• appeared normal at 3 weeks of age, but severe and rapid atrophy ensued after weaning
|
• reduced number of peripheral lymphocytes relative to heterozygous controls
|
• appeared normal at 3 weeks of age, but reduction of cells was noted after weaning
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• elevated serum levels
|
hypoglycemia
(
J:88172
)
• first detected at 2 weeks of age
|
• normal at 10 days and 2 weeks of age, but decreased at 9 and 10 weeks of age
• possibly a result of increased serum levels of calcium and and 1,25(OH)2D
|
• first significant increase detected at 2 weeks of age
|
• first detected at 10 days of age
|
• enhanced renal phosphate reabsorption
|
• increased serum levels of 1,25(OH)2D due to overexpression of renal 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1alpha-hydroxylase (1alpha-OHase) from 10 days of age
|
immune system
• appeared normal at 3 weeks of age, but severe and rapid atrophy ensued after weaning
|
• reduced number of peripheral lymphocytes relative to heterozygous controls
|
• appeared normal at 3 weeks of age, but reduction of cells was noted after weaning
|
limbs/digits/tail
short femur
(
J:88172
)
• femurs were markedly shorter than those of controls at 7 weeks of age
|
renal/urinary system
• enhanced renal phosphate reabsorption
|
• marked vascular calcification
|
• atrophy
|
reproductive system
infertility
(
J:88172
)
• due to abnormal development of reproductive organs
|
skeleton
short femur
(
J:88172
)
• femurs were markedly shorter than those of controls at 7 weeks of age
|
• severely disorganized growth plate lacking hypertrophic chondrocytes
|
• accumulation of unmineralized osteoids
|
endocrine/exocrine glands
• appeared normal at 3 weeks of age, but severe and rapid atrophy ensued after weaning
