• die within 1 week after birth

nervous system
• barely any interneurons are present in the pallium
• however, interneurons appear to be normally specified in the medial ganglionic eminences and in the rostral migratory stream to the olfactory bulb
• the basolateral amygdala is absent
• in the ventral telencephalon corticofugal axons poorly innervate the internal capsule, thalmocortical axons are nearly lost before reaching the internal capsule, and the majority of fibers abnormally descend into the hypothalamus
• corridor neurons originating in the lateral ganglionic eminences are expanded and dispersed
• increase in cell proliferation in the cortices at E12.5
• the pallial-subpallial boundary is shifted dorsally
• the glial palisade of the pallial-subpallial boundary is aberrant and less fasciculated
• greatly reduced numbers in the marginal zone at E12.5 and E13.5
• marked reduction of the cortical layers and ventricular zone
• decrease in the numbers of early differentiated Tuj1-, Neurod1- or Tbr1-positive neurons in the preplate at E12.5
• increase in cell proliferation at E13.5
• decrease in the number of cells reentering the cell cycle at E16.5 suggesting a depletion of the progenitor pool
• the proliferating zone is hyperplastic and differentiated structures are reduced
• hyperplastic and the cell-dense proliferating field is expanded into the deep differentiating field at E15.5
• reduced at E18.5
• small cerebral hemispheres
• each cortical projection is greatly reduced
• barely any interneurons are present in the pallium
• at E18.5 calretinin-positive layer I, Cux1-positive layer II/III, Satb2-positive layer II-IV, Rorb-positive layer IV, Er81-positive layer V, and calretinin-positive subplate are reduced
• however, the Foxp2- or Tbr1-positive layer VI is almost normal
• marked reduction of the cortical layers and ventricular zone
• hypoplastic at P1
• increase in cell proliferation at E13.5
• thinner with fewer BrdU positive cells in S phase at E15.5
• the Islet1-positive lateral ganglionic eminence subventricular zone is expanded while the differentiating area is reduced at E15.5
• the Islet1-positive lateral ganglionic eminence subventricular zone is expanded while the differentiating area is reduced at E15.5
• at E15.5, but not at E12.5, the number of proliferating cells is increased particularly in the deeper area
• axons of commissural neurons labeled by L1 (corpus callosum, anterior commissure, and fornix/hippocampal commissure) are poorly formed
• corticofugal axons are thin in the pallium

growth/size/body
• severe growth retardation
