Shox2tm2.1(SHOX_a)Ypc/Shox2tm2.1(SHOX_a)Ypc mice develop a severe wasting syndrome

craniofacial
• premature wear out of the articulating disc of the temporomandibular joint
• by P5 and P10 the articulating disc becomes much thinner than in controls
• at P21 the articulating disc is almost worn away

mortality/aging
• only 14% (4 of 29) of mice survive to weaning

growth/size/body
• develop a severe wasting syndrome
• however, weights are similar at birth
• if mice are fed liquid foods mice can slowly catch up with controls

skeleton
• premature wear out of the articulating disc of the temporomandibular joint
• by P5 and P10 the articulating disc becomes much thinner than in controls
• at P21 the articulating disc is almost worn away

cardiovascular system
N
• normal heart rate unlike mice homozygous for Shox2tm2(SHOX_a)Ypc
• no defects in the sinoatrial node and sinus valves, unlike in null mice
