phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• unlike mice that do not carry Casp8tm1.1Yuan, compound heterozygous mutants survive injection with an anti-Fas Ab

hematopoietic system
• 2 days after induction of cre expression the ability of progenitor cells to form myeloid or B lymphoid colonies in culture or in transplant studies is significantly decreased
• the ability of these progenitors to differentiate into macrophages is also decreased after induction of cre expression

mortality/aging
• compound heterozygotes die around E12, similar to Casp8tm1.1Yuan homozygotes

cardiovascular system
• the density of the vasculature in the yolk sac is decreased
• severe congestion of the liver and large vessels of the chest and abdomen similar to Casp8tm1.1Yuan homozygotes is seen
