mortality/aging
• mice die within 24 hours after birth
|
integument
• severe defect
|
• tightly packed structure, narrowed interstices
• loss or abnormalities in the cornified lipid envelope
|
• decreased amount of intercellular lipid lamellae
|
• impaired granule secretion and abnormal vesicular structures
• defective lamellar bodies are retained within corneocytes
|
• due to impaired granule secretion

|
homeostasis/metabolism
• severe defect
|
• epidermal levels
|
• increased free fatty acid epidermal levels
