mortality/aging
• embryos die around birth
|
• mice do not survive after birth
|
embryo
• between E9.5 and E11.5, inverted tail turning is observed in 39% of embryos
|
• at E11.5, limb buds have fewer cilia relative to wild-type; mesenchymal limb cells (MLCs) and mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) show enhancement of cilia length in culture compared to wild-type cells
|
• from E12.5, fore- and hindlimb buds have a broadened shape
|
• at E11.5, the neural tube has less cilia relative to wild-type embryos
|
growth/size/body
• frequent
|
heterotaxia
(
J:122745
)
• at later stages, embryos show heterotaxia in organ development; some embryos have the stomach positioned to the right
|
• all embryos develop only 2 symmetrical lung lobes
|
craniofacial
• pronounced round skull
|
• nasal tissues are unfused in some embryos
|
• mandibular structures are malformed
|
• maxillary tissues are unfused
|
• frequent
|
limbs/digits/tail
• at E11.5, limb buds have fewer cilia relative to wild-type; mesenchymal limb cells (MLCs) and mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) show enhancement of cilia length in culture compared to wild-type cells
|
• from E12.5, fore- and hindlimb buds have a broadened shape
|
• fore- and hindlimbs show preaxial polydactyly; there are 2 extra digits on the forelimbs and 1 extra on the hindlimbs
(J:122745)

cardiovascular system
dextrocardia
(
J:122745
)
• at E9.5, ~19% of embryos show heart looping to right side of body (or randomized looping)
|
• 9 of 27 embryos show perimembranous ventricular septal defects marked by the combination of a significantly thinner muscular part of the ventricular septum and the absence of the membranous part of the VS
|
• pericardium is enlarged in most embryos examined at E10.5
|
respiratory system
• all embryos develop only 2 symmetrical lung lobes
|
nervous system
• at E11.5, the neural tube has less cilia relative to wild-type embryos
|
• ventricular dilation

(J:122745)
|
liver/biliary system
• at E18.5, ductal plate malformations are apparent and characterized by the presence of several bile ducts surrounding the portal vein
|
renal/urinary system
• at E18.5, microcystic dilatation of proximal tubules
|
vision/eye
• embryos have eyes which are reduced in size
(J:122745)
• some mice have small, deep set eyes
(J:123018)
|
anophthalmia
(
J:123018
)
• some mice have no eyes
|
skeleton
• pronounced round skull
|
• nasal tissues are unfused in some embryos
|
• mandibular structures are malformed
|
• maxillary tissues are unfused
|
endocrine/exocrine glands
• at E18.5, ductal plate malformations are apparent and characterized by the presence of several bile ducts surrounding the portal vein
|
• reduced or absent
