mortality/aging
• most mice die by one month of age from renal failure
|
renal/urinary system
• increased apoptosis is observed in both cysts and normal looking epithelial tubules of 2 day old mice
|
• cystic kidneys are first detectable at 10 days of age
• the disease is progressive with cysts dominating the kidney architecture by 26 days of age
• however, glomerular cysts are not observed
• cysts of proximal and distal origin develop at different rates with distal cysts progressively increasing in size until death
• proximal cysts stop growing at 15 days of age and start to regress or completely disappear before death
