• there is a significantly reduced percentage of stage 4 follicles in E18.5- E19.0 embryos (23% vs 17% in wild-type controls at E18.5)
• there is also a significant reduction in stage 3 follicles at E19.0 (25% vs. 34%)
|
|
• the mean overall thickness of the skin of E18.5 embryos is 196 microns compared to 252 microns for wild-type embryos
|
|
• there is a 37% reduction of basal epithelial cells that are actively dividing in the skin of E18.5 embyros compared to wild-type embryos
|
|
• the mean thickness of the epidermis of E18.5 embryos is 35 microns which is significantly less than the mean of 43 microns for wild-type embryos
|
cellular
|
• heterozygotes exhibit neither surface osteoblastic differentiation nor intramembranous bone formation laterally
|
craniofacial
|
• newborn heterozygotes display delayed ossification of the cranial bones resulting in an open anterior and posterior fontanelle
|
|
• newborn heterozygotes display delayed ossification of the cranial bones resulting in widened cranial sutures
|
|
• in newborn heterozygotes, the interparietal bones are hypoplastic relative to those of wild-type mice; numerous Wormian bones are present
|
|
• in newborn heterozygotes, the parietal bones are hypoplastic relative to those of wild-type mice; numerous Wormian bones are present
|
|
• newborn heterozygotes have a hypoplastic hyoid bone with two distinct ossification centers
|
|
• in heterozygotes, the development of tooth primordia is slightly retarded but otherwise normal
|
limbs/digits/tail
|
• heterozygotes show loss of the deltoid tuberosity of the humerus
|

|
|
• heterozygotes show loss of the deltoid tuberosity of the humerus
|
|
• newborn heterozygotes exhibit hypoplasia of the clavicle; only a clavicular (lateral) rudiment is observed
• heterozygous clavicles display a slightly hypoactive periclavicular mesenchyme with less advanced cartilaginous differentiation at 16.5 dpc, but with organizing cartilage at 19.5 dpc
|
|
• newborn heterozygotes have a wider xiphoid process of the sternum with two well-separated ossification centers
|
|
• the pubic and ischial bones are widely separated and hypoplastic in newborns
|
|
• the pubic and ischial bones are widely separated and hypoplastic in newborns
|
|
• adult heterozygotes have a solid cartilaginous bar within a thick fibrous sheath; the cartilage appears disorganized with no matrix calcification
|
|
• in adult heterozygotes, epiphyseal growth-plate structure and differentiation are only slightly perturbed
|
|
• at 16.5 dpc, heterozygous embryos show a slight delay in endochondral ossification, with relatively normal vascularization and population of the marrow by hematopoetic cells
|
|
• at 16.5 dpc, the skulls of heterozygotes have slightly thinner cartilage plates with minimal intramembranous ossification; however, ossification is readily detectable at 19.5 dpc
|

|
• in heterozygotes, the development of tooth primordia is slightly retarded but otherwise normal
