vision/eye
• retina and cornea are present but their architecture and position are distorted, although this may be due to the small lens
|
• disorganized lens
• the posterior part of lens affects the organization of the neural retina by pulling it inwards
• lens actin cytoskeleton organization is disrupted
|
• marker analysis indicates that lens development is impaired at E16.5
|
• delay in detachment of developing lens from the cornea at the anterior region of the eye
|
small lens
(
J:210388
)
• lens is already smaller at E16.5
|
• eye weight/body weight ratio is reduced 40-45%
|
cellular
• lens actin cytoskeleton organization is disrupted
