liver/biliary system
• at E11.5, a large increase in apoptotic liver cells is observed
• some pups recovered between E11.5 and E12.5 exhibit defects in liver architecture
• normal sized livers have severe tissue loss accompanied by expansion of sinuses
• a moderate decrease in proliferating liver cells and a large increase in apoptotic liver cells are observed even prior to reduction in liver size
• fewer erythropoeitic (Ter119+) cells are found due to increased apoptosis
• some pups recovered between E11.5 and E12.5 exhibit liver hypoplasia

hematopoietic system
• E12.5 myeloid and erythroid precursors from the liver form fewer hematopoeitic colonies compared to wild-type cells
• some pups recovered between E11.5 and E12.5 are anemic

cardiovascular system
• some pups recovered between E11.5 and E12.5 exhibit heart hypoplasia with pericardial hemorrhages
• some pups recovered between E11.5 and E12.5 exhibit heart hypoplasia with pericardial hemorrhages

embryo
• some pups recovered between E11.5 and E12.5 exhibit developmental arrest and death
• some pups recovered between E11.5 and E12.5 exhibit developmental growth retardation

cellular
• hepatocytes and hematopoeitic cells of the liver undergo increased amounts of apoptosis
• explanted fetal liver cells grown in culture barely increase in cell number whereas wild-type cells double every 24 hours due to an increase in apoptosis
• at E11.5, a large increase in apoptotic liver cells is observed
• explanted fetal liver cells grown in culture barely increase in cell number whereas wild-type cells double every 24 hours due to an increase in apoptosis

growth/size/body
• some pups recovered between E11.5 and E12.5 exhibit developmental growth retardation

homeostasis/metabolism
• some pups recovered between E11.5 and E12.5 exhibit heart hypoplasia with pericardial hemorrhages
