N normal phenotype
cardiovascular system
• only sparse mesenchymal cells expression alpha-SMA are found in atrioventricular cushions indicating a defect in EMT
• deformed at E14.5 and E16.5
• at E14.5 and E16.5
• deformed valves at E14.5 and E16.5
• shorter but thicker valves indicating a failure of valve outgrowth and remodeling

craniofacial
• double mutant embryos that survive until late gestation display no calvarial ossification; in contrast, the chondrocranium is preserved
• in double homozygotes, tooth development arrests at the lamina or early bud stages, i.e. earlier than the bud stage arrest observed in Msx1tm1Rilm mutants

endocrine/exocrine glands
• all male and female double homozygotes show a failure of mammary epithelial invagination, resulting in subsequent regression

skeleton
• double mutant embryos that survive until late gestation display no calvarial ossification; in contrast, the chondrocranium is preserved
• in double homozygotes, tooth development arrests at the lamina or early bud stages, i.e. earlier than the bud stage arrest observed in Msx1tm1Rilm mutants

integument
• all male and female double homozygotes show a failure of mammary epithelial invagination, resulting in subsequent regression
• at E18.5, the number of hair follicles in double-mutant dorsal back skin is reduced to ~1/3 that of wild-type

growth/size/body
• in double homozygotes, tooth development arrests at the lamina or early bud stages, i.e. earlier than the bud stage arrest observed in Msx1tm1Rilm mutants
