renal/urinary system
kidney cyst
(
J:99620
)
• multiple cysts of varying size that obscure the demarcation between the cortex and medulla
• cysts become larger with age and are initially found in the proximal tubules
epithelial intercellular spaces are often focally ballooned
|
• kidneys are grossly enlarged
|
• kidney wet weight is increased to 1.96g - 2.12g compared to 0.16g - 0.19g in wild-type mice
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• mean creatinine is 0.66mg% compared to 0.23mg% in wild-type mice
|
• mean BUN is 143mg% compared to 21mg% in wild-type mice
|
endocrine/exocrine glands
• poorly-formed acini are connected to enlarged, dilated ducts
|
• exocrine cells containing zygomen granules are seen in clusters unassociated with well-formed acini
|
• poorly-formed acini are connected to enlarged, dilated ducts
|
• bile ductules are somewhat enlarged
|
• few if any well-formed islets are found
|
• normal architecture is replaced by sheets of fibrous tissue
|
liver/biliary system
• bile ductules are somewhat enlarged
|
• some portal areas have increased fibrous tissue
|
behavior/neurological
• feed poorly during the first few hours of life and generally fail to thrive
|
digestive/alimentary system
• poorly-formed acini are connected to enlarged, dilated ducts
|
• exocrine cells containing zygomen granules are seen in clusters unassociated with well-formed acini
|
• poorly-formed acini are connected to enlarged, dilated ducts
