mortality/aging
• all die by 5 weeks of age

renal/urinary system
• show an increase in apoptosis in the kidney at E15.5
• renal parenchyma is decreased and homozygotes exhibit histopathological changes consistent with obstructive nephropathy
• multiple cysts of varying sizes are observed at birth as well as later times
• globally sclerosed glomeruli, indicating end-stage renal histology
• severe reduction in the number of glomeruli
• kidneys fail to establish an outer cortex region
• kidneys fail to establish a normal architecture
• developing glomeruli are seen in embryos but they are scant and scattered throughout the mesenchyme
• kidneys fail to establish an inner medulla region
• ectopic kidney is seen by E15.5
• severe dilation of both ureters
• distal obstruction in postnatal mice, most likely due to the inability of ureters to separate from the wolffian duct
• bilateral megaureters with distal stenosis are seen at birth
• severe decrease in the branching morphogenesis of the ureteric buds
• exhibit bilateral supernumerary ureteric buds that are attached to the wolffian duct

endocrine/exocrine glands
• ovaries fail to descend to normal location at birth due to inability of the Wolffian duct to separate from the ureters
• testes fail to descend to normal location at birth due to inability of the vas deferens to separate from the ureters

reproductive system
• ovaries fail to descend to normal location at birth due to inability of the Wolffian duct to separate from the ureters
• testes fail to descend to normal location at birth due to inability of the vas deferens to separate from the ureters

cellular
• show an increase in apoptosis in the kidney at E15.5

growth/size/body
• multiple cysts of varying sizes are observed at birth as well as later times
