Corneal plaques and increased angiogenesis in the ear of Notch1tm2Rko/Notch1tm3(cre)Rko mice

growth/size/body
• reactive splenomegaly is observed at post mortem

mortality/aging
• life expectancy is significantly reduced in mutants (420 days) compared to wild-type (600 days)

neoplasm
• 11/13 mice have hemangiosarcoma/vascular tumors, some of which involve multiple organs including the ovary, testis, skin, lymph node, uterus, and colon; liver is the primary site (82% of mice)

vision/eye
• corneal hyperplasia develops by 2-3 months in all animals
• normal cornea is replaced by a vascularized epidermis-like structure
• mice develop corneal plaques by 2-3 months; this increases in severity with age

hematopoietic system
• observed in the spleen in granulocytic, erythrocytic, and megakaryocytic lineages with no bias in B/T cell lineages
• marked expansion of the interfollicular compartments is observed
• reactive splenomegaly is observed at post mortem

liver/biliary system
• dense, chronic inflammatory infiltrates are observed around the bile ducts
• liver contains numerous reddened large blood filled spaces consistent with occurrence of vascular tumors
• hepatic cords are separated by inflammatory infiltrate
• normal parenchyma is replaced either by solid, hypercellular tissue composed of spindle and epithelioid cells interspersed with many vascular channels or by irregular vascular channels lined by cells with scant-to-moderate eosinophilic cytoplasm and round-to-oval nuclei; nuclei of these cells of endothelial origin were hyperchromatic or contained coarse chromatin
• liver lobes have irregular contours
• on post mortem liver is observed to be pale, with many irregular reddened foci; some patches are almost white

cardiovascular system
• increased angiogenesis is observed in the ear
• observed in 6/7 naturally deceased mice
• normal cornea is replaced by a vascularized epidermis-like structure

immune system
• marked expansion of the interfollicular compartments is observed
• reactive splenomegaly is observed at post mortem
• dense, chronic inflammatory infiltrates are observed around the bile ducts

Embryonic lethality in Notch1tm2Rko/Notch1tm4(cre)Rko embryos due to the failure of angiogenic remodeling

embryo
• defective angiogenic remodeling of the yolk sac vasculature is observed

mortality/aging
• death at E10.5 is observed, likely resulting from higher loss of heterozygosity (LOH) frequency compared to that in Notch1tm2Rko/Notch1tm3(cre)Rko embryos; higher LOH occurs because of improved cre expression

cardiovascular system
• defective angiogenic remodeling of the yolk sac vasculature is observed
