embryo
• increased neural crest cell proliferation in the facial prominences, as shown by BrdU immunostaining
|
• cranial neural crest cells do not extend primary cilia
• primary cilia are truncated in frontonasal prominence
|
nervous system
• cranial neural crest cells do not extend primary cilia
• primary cilia are truncated in frontonasal prominence
|
• failure of neural fibers to span the midline
|
craniofacial
• craniofacial skeleton elements are displaced laterally but their maturation is unaffected
|
• severely dysmorphic
• anterior cranium occultum
• trabecular basal plate is reduced to bony nodules or absent at E17.5
|
• is reduced to bony nodules or absent at E17.5
|
• laterally displaced and underdeveloped resulting in an abnormal opening in the skull
|
• ramus is absent
|
• 30% shorter than wild-type
|
• laterally displaced at E17.5
|
• laterally displaced at E17.5
|
• laterally displaced at E17.5
|
• the palatine bones are dysmorphic and do not extend towards the midline
• some small ectopic ossifications are found in the midline which may or may not be fragments of the palatine bones
|
• presence of an abnormal skin-covered gap in the front of the head
|
• at E11.5 and E12.5 infra-nasal measurements show an increase in frontonasal width
• at E14.5, almost 100% wider than wild-type and at E17.5 120% wider than wild-type
|
• at E12.5, septum is evident as a bifid condensation and by E16.5 a duplicated nasal septum is present
