mortality/aging
• most die before P10 with none surviving to P16

growth/size/body
• of 4 mice that survived to P10, 2 are much smaller than littermate controls

skeleton
• at P1 an increase in midline clefts in the endplate are seen
• at P10, chondrocytes in the endplate appear larger and the surrounding matrix is more intensely stained with Alcian Blue
• the inner and outer layers of the annulus fibrosus stain more intensely with Alcian Blue
• expression analysis indicates abnormal differentiation of cartilaginous tissues
• thoracic scoliosis at P10 with an average Cobb angle of 30 +/- 4 degrees
• some mild wedging of the vertebra at the apex of the curvature
• severe decrease in trabecular bone formation in the T6 vertebra
• delay in the formation of the endochondral ossification in the vertebral bodies at P1 and an increase in midline clefts in the vertebral growth plate
• at P10, there is an increased number of cell layers in the hypertrophic zone of the vertebral growth plate and a minor increase in the number of cells or cell layers in the proliferative/prehypertrophic zone of the growth plate
• expression analysis indicates abnormal differentiation of cartilaginous tissues in the growth plate of the spine
• overall smaller vertebrae
• in the T6 vertebra
• general disorganization of chondrocytes in the vertebrae
• at P10, chondrocytes in the intervertebral disk endplate appear larger and the surrounding matrix is more intensely stained with Alcian Blue
• lateral X-rays show reduced signal attenuation in the distal ribs indicative of reduced mineralized bone
• impaired in the thoracic vertebral bodies at P1 and P10
• delay in the formation of the endochondral ossification in the vertebral bodies at P1
