digestive/alimentary system
• greatly expanded or elongated crypts with large lumens and vacuoles
• the inner surfaces of cryptic lumina/values are lined by microvilli
|
• electron densities of Paneth cell granules are reduced in crypts
|
• increase in intestinal tissue weight per surface area, indicating tissue edema
|
• mutant intestines exhibit a reduction in glucose uptake compared to either single mutant
