N normal phenotype
endocrine/exocrine glands
• the amount of insulin secreted by beta-islet cells in response to glucose is much less with a 70% reduction in the amount secreted in response to 20 mmol glucose

homeostasis/metabolism
• the amount of insulin secreted by beta-islet cells in response to glucose is much less with a 70% reduction in the amount secreted in response to 20 mmol glucose
• circulating insulin levels are significantly lower 10 to 30 minutes after a glucose challenge
• these mice have impaired glucose tolerance with glucose levels significantly higher 60 minutes after glucose administration

mortality/aging
• almost all mice die before birth, with a significant deviation from expected Mendelian frequencies first noted at E14.5

cardiovascular system
• smaller than the pulmonary artery
• circulatory failure
• common atrioventricular junction
• the aorta and pulmonary artery both originate from the right ventricle
• the mitral valve of E14.5 embryos is dysplastic
• a primum atrial septal defect is seen at the ventral margin of the primary atrial septum in E14.5 embryos
• a large ventricular septum defect connects the left and right ventricles

renal/urinary system
• kidneys of E14.5 embryos are hypoplastic and occasionally positioned abnormally

nervous system
