growth/size/body
• relative overgrowth of incisors
|
• impaired growth; skeleton is normal at birth but is smaller at P21
|
craniofacial
• craniofacial morphology is altered
|
• relative overgrowth of incisors
|
hematopoietic system
• extensive vacuolization is seen in cultures of bone marrow mesenchymal stroma
|
skeleton
• skeleton is normal at birth but is smaller at P21
|
• relative overgrowth of incisors
|
• clavicles are 20-25% smaller at P21 than in wild-type, however their shape is normal
• however, pelvic bone shape is normal in newborns and at P21
|
• long bones are 20-25% smaller at P21 than in wild-type
|
• bone volume fraction, bone surface, trabecular number and connectivity density are reduced to less than 50% of wild-type values
|
• lower cortical density of bones
|
• femoral cortical thickness is reduced to less than 50% of wild-type values
|
• extensive vacuolization is seen in cultures of isolated osteoblasts from calvarial tissue
|
• lower trabecular density of bones and reduction in size and density of trabeculae in vertebrae
• trabecular separation is increased more than 3-fold
|
limbs/digits/tail
N |
• mice do not exhibit aplasia or hypoplasia of digits on the front or rear limb
