skeleton
• the femur exhibit reduced length, bone mineral density, cortical thickness, stiffness, and force to failure compared to in wild-type mice
|
• the number of small diameter fibrils is increased compared to in wild-type mice
• the distribution of fibril size is altered with more smaller diameter fibrils compared to in wild-type mice
|
• the chondrocytes within the hypertrophic zone are less organized compared to in wild-type mice
|
short femur
(

)
• progressively worsens with age
|
• in the skull and limbs
|
• the trabecular area is less mineralized with more spaces compared to in wild-type mice
|
• at E18 in the parietal bone
|
growth/size/body
• mice exhibit rhizomelia (decreased ration of femoral length to tibial length) unlike wild-type mice
|
adipose tissue

integument
• the dermis is less densely packed compared to in wild-type mice
|
