mortality/aging
• approximately 25% of mice survive for 2 years
• mice begin to die suddenly after 1 year of age without any obvious signs
• pups are not born at the expected Mendelian ratio, indicating partial embryonic lethality

growth/size/body
• heart/body weight ratio is increased in 12- and 52-week-old mice and does not change between 12 and 52 weeks of age
• 12-week-old mice exhibit cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, with increased heart/body weight ratio and cardiomyocyte size
• however, no increase in fibrosis or apoptosis in the heart is seen
• treatment with the MEK inhibitor trametinib ameliorates cardiac hypertrophy
• however, the AKT/mTOR signaling inhibitor rapamycin does not improve cardiac hypertrophy
• mice exhibit more blunt snouts with reduced length of the nasal bone
• body weight is lower until approximately 10 weeks of age, after which mice catch up with wild-type mice
• body length is lower until approximately 10 weeks of age, after which mice catch up with wild-type mice
• kidney/body weight ratio is increased
• splenomegaly
• treatment with trametinib does not alleviate splenomegaly

cardiovascular system
• heart/body weight ratio is increased in 12- and 52-week-old mice and does not change between 12 and 52 weeks of age
• 12-week-old mice exhibit cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, with increased heart/body weight ratio and cardiomyocyte size
• however, no increase in fibrosis or apoptosis in the heart is seen
• treatment with the MEK inhibitor trametinib ameliorates cardiac hypertrophy
• however, the AKT/mTOR signaling inhibitor rapamycin does not improve cardiac hypertrophy
• embryos exhibit edema and/or subcutaneous hemorrhage on E14.5 and E16.5

craniofacial
• rounder skulls
• mice exhibit more blunt snouts with reduced length of the nasal bone

homeostasis/metabolism
• embryos exhibit edema and/or subcutaneous hemorrhage on E14.5 and E16.5

immune system
• splenomegaly
• treatment with trametinib does not alleviate splenomegaly
• immunostaining of back skin at E16.5 indicates lymphatic abnormalities

integument
• embryos exhibit edema and/or subcutaneous hemorrhage on E14.5 and E16.5

hematopoietic system
• splenomegaly
• treatment with trametinib does not alleviate splenomegaly
• extramedullary hematopoiesis in the spleen and liver

renal/urinary system
• renal hypertrophy
• treatment with trametinib does not alleviate renal hypertrophy
• kidney/body weight ratio is increased

respiratory system
• mice exhibit more blunt snouts with reduced length of the nasal bone

skeleton
• rounder skulls
• mice exhibit more blunt snouts with reduced length of the nasal bone

vision/eye
