mortality/aging
• mice die perinatally
|
renal/urinary system
• mice are born with nephrotic-range proteinuria
|
• mice exhibit broadened primary processes and shortened secondary foot processes
• mice have misdirected foot processes but, at least at early stages of glomerular maturation, are able to form slit diaphragm-like junctions
|
• slit diaphragm-like junctions often appear dislocated apically
|
• glomeruli show signs of increased tubular protein uptake with mice showing protein-filled proximal tubular cells
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• mice are born with nephrotic-range proteinuria
