embryo
• a slight delay at E11.5 in the migratory behavior of enteric neural crest-derived cells (ENCDC) at the levels where the migrating wave front advances into the hindgut
• at E12.5-E13.5, the delay in hindgut colonization by ENCDCs is greatly enhanced
• in approximately half of the fetuses, ENCDC colonization was not observed in the distal colon even at E15.5

nervous system
• the nuclei were found to be abnormally indented, resulting in multilobular nuclei ganglia
