|
|
• at E14.5, the bilateral dental laminae are formed in close proximity and fused to form single and a shallow invagination in the midline with excess condensation of ectomesenchymal cells
|
|
• at E18.5, premaxillary bones are fused in the midline completely or incompletely, sometimes with a single hall at the center
• premaxillary shelves are hypomorphic or missing at E18.5
• fused premaxilla are occasionally observed at E14.5
|
|
• bilateral vomer wings are already fused and filled with bone at E18.5; no unmineralized mid-sagittal mesenchymal structures are observed
• at E14.5, ectomesenchymal cells condense only at the tip of the nasal septum, possibly corresponding to the midline fusion of the vomer wings seen at E18.5
|
|
• mice exhibit a dome-shaped cranium at postpartum, due to the presence of a shorter cranial base against the normal growing calvarium
|
|
• approximately one third of mice exhibit cleft lip and/or cleft palate at E18.5
