mortality/aging
• although present at E7.5, no mice are present at E10.5
• however, treatment with menaquinone 4 or coenzyme Q10 extends lifespan to E15.5 in some embryos and P1 in others
|
embryo
• absence of the constriction marking the extraembryonic-embryonic ectoderm border
|
• at E7.5
• however, treatment with MK-4 rescues embryo size
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• mice are unable to synthesize menaquinone 4 (MK-4)
• however, mice are able to synthesize coenzyme Q9 (CoQ9)
|
growth/size/body
• at E7.5
• however, treatment with MK-4 rescues embryo size
