mortality/aging
• only 8 of 128 mice delivered survived to adulthood
|
• most (120 of 128) mice die between P0.5 and P2
|
growth/size/body
malocclusion
(
J:219788
)
• at 2 months of age, 2 of 8 survivors display malocclusion
|
• at 2 months of age, 2 of 8 survivors display an obviously bent nose
|
• starting at E10.5
|
• all mice are born smaller in size
|
• mice surviving to adulthood show severe growth retardation within the first 4 weeks after birth
|
• at E14.5-E18.5
|
• mice show growth retardation as early as E10.5
|
behavior/neurological
• pups lack gastric milk, suggesting death from starvation
|
• although pups are capable of actively searching and licking their mothers' nipples, they fail to remain stably attached to the nipples for even just 1 min in ~70% of attempts
|
skeleton
• at 2 months of age, rare survivors display bone loss in metopic sutures
|
malocclusion
(
J:219788
)
• at 2 months of age, 2 of 8 survivors display malocclusion
|
• at 2 months of age, 2 of 8 survivors display an obviously bent nose
|
• at P0, neonates show delayed ossification at the nasal bones and sagittal and metopic sutures
|
craniofacial
• at 2 months of age, rare survivors display bone loss in metopic sutures
|
malocclusion
(
J:219788
)
• at 2 months of age, 2 of 8 survivors display malocclusion
|
• at 2 months of age, 2 of 8 survivors display an obviously bent nose
|
cellular
• ESCs derived from mutant mice fail to efficiently establish H3K9me2 during retinoic acid-induced differentiation across a large number of genes, and a subset of these genes, including Oct4 and Nanog, display delayed gene silencing during differentiation
|
embryo
• starting at E10.5
|
respiratory system
• at 2 months of age, 2 of 8 survivors display an obviously bent nose
