mortality/aging
• embryos die between E9.5 and E12.5
|
embryo
• at E9.5, the endothelial cells in the vascular network of the yolk sac are disorganized, fewer endothelial cells are present, branching is decreased and the vessels present are of larger caliber than those in wild-types
• at E10.0, the yolk sac has a 49% to 69%, reduction in CD31+ endothelial cells
• however, normal numbers of erythrocytes and erythrocyte precursors, monocytes, macrocytes and lymphocytes are present
|
• at E9.5 tissues degenerate and detached pycnotic cells fill the neural canal
|
• at E9.5
|
• at E8.5 caudal development is delayed
• at E9.5 caudal development is arrested and the caudal region receding at E10.5
|
• at E9.5
|
• at E9.5 most embryos show severely kinked neural tubes
|
• at E9.5 tissues degenerate and detached pycnotic cells fill the neural canal
• at E10.5 the caudal neural tube is degenerate
|
• at E10.5 degenerating cells are observed in the septum transversum
|
• at E10.5 caudal somites are disorganized and degenerate
• however, somites are observed in the cranial region
|
cardiovascular system
• the number of endothelial cells in the yolk sac and aorta is decreased
|
• the branching of vascular network vessels in the yolk sac is reduced
|
• at E9.5, the endothelial cells in the vascular network of the yolk sac are disorganized, fewer endothelial cells are present, branching is decreased and the vessels present are of larger caliber than those in wild-types
• at E10.0, the yolk sac has a 49% to 69%, reduction in CD31+ endothelial cells
• however, normal numbers of erythrocytes and erythrocyte precursors, monocytes, macrocytes and lymphocytes are present
|
• at E9.5 embryos have smaller cardiac regions
|
liver/biliary system
• at E9.5 and E10.5 no hepatic albumin mRNA is expressed indicating absence of hepatic precursor cells
• at E10.5 degenerating cells are observed in the septum transversum and no hepatic epithelial cells present
• however, Hnf3a+ endodermal-derived cells are present in the gut, notochord and floor plate
|
nervous system
• at E9.5 most embryos show severely kinked neural tubes
|
• at E9.5 tissues degenerate and detached pycnotic cells fill the neural canal
• at E10.5 the caudal neural tube is degenerate
|
growth/size/body
• at E9.5
