embryo
• some cilia are shorter and thicker
• most cilia have terminal bulges or balloon like structures
• direction of turning is completely reversed in 18% (7 of 38) of embryos and partially reversed in an additional 4 embryos
• embryos with reversal of turning direction do not always also have reversal of the direction of heart looping

cardiovascular system
• at E9.5 - E10.5, about 40% of embryos show either completely reversed or ventral rather than horizontal looping

• some cilia are shorter and thicker
• most cilia have terminal bulges or balloon like structures

embryo
• image trace analysis suggests an increase in the number of short cilia
• embryonic cilia on the periphery of Henson's node show a decrease in the proportion of motile cilia with regular motion and an increase in the proportion of erratically moving cilia
• in the pit of the node the proportion of nonmotile and erratically moving cilia is increased and the proportion of motile cilia with regular motion is decreased
• intracellular calcium asymmetries normally present around the node are absent
