mortality/aging
• although present in normal ratios at E15.5/E16.5, heterozygotes are recovered at lower than Mendelian ratios at weaning; however, increase in lethality between E15.5/E16.5 and weaning does not reach statistical significance

cardiovascular system
N |
• no ventricular septal defects were identified at E15.5
|
• at E10.5, atrioventricular (AV) endocardial cushions are hypocellular with a significant reduction in mesenchymal cell density relative to wild-type and single Sox7tm1.1Dsco heterozygous controls
